Welcome

 

As the Principal of St Brigid’s Primary School, I extend to you a very warm welcome to our website.  Through this we aim to give you a flavour of some of the school events, visitors and experiences offered to our children.

St Brigid’s is a Catholic maintained, co-educational primary school, where the children are at the heart of every decision we make and everything we do. We value the great relationships that we have formed with our parents and acknowledge the dedicated work and commitment of the Staff, Governors and Parents Association.

We enjoy a warm, welcoming, inclusive atmosphere and it is this distinctive ethos which enables the children to flourish and succeed giving them the skills, attitudes and desire to achieve their full potential. 

I hope that you find our website informative and interesting and gain some insight into how we fulfil our school motto: 'Learning and Growing Together'.  If you would like to see our school and experience our ethos I would be delighted to meet with you.

Thank you for visiting our website.

Kind regards

Dolores Miller

Principal

Our school choir made a heart-warming visit to local nurseries and pre-schools this week, sharing festive songs and spreading Christmas cheer. 🎄🎅🏼 The children performed a selection of holiday favourites, bringing smiles, excitement, and plenty of seasonal spirit. ✨ It was a wonderful opportunity for our students to connect with the community.

🦅P4 Bird Unit Takes Flight 🦅 From digital storytelling to outdoor engineering! Our P4 class turned into a hub for all things bird-related! 📱Digital Authors: We finished our amazing Book Creator ebooks all about bird migration. 📖 🥜 Feeder Builders: We got messy (in the best way!) creating DIY bird feeders! Hopefully, these will be a popular stop on the feathered highway. 🏡 🦅 Beak Detectives: Our bird beak investigation was a blast! We tested different tools like tweezers, toothpicks, spoons, and pegs to see which "beak" could pick up the most "food" in just 30 seconds. The results were a fascinating demonstration of survival and adaptation! 🥣🔬 Swipe through to see our little scientists and engineers in action!
