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

P6/7 thoroughly enjoyed the St Brigid's PTFA Funday. Many thanks for your ongoing support and fundraising efforts for our children.
🤩P5 had an amazing time at the PTFA Fun Day today! 🤩 They started at the play park 🛝, then hit the tuck shop for some treats 🍬 before enjoying games with the coaches ⚽️. After that, it was ice cream🍦and slushies🥤all round, and loads of fun on the inflatables! 🎈 A big thank you to our brilliant PTFA for organising such a fun and memorable day! 💙
What an amazing day at the PTFA Funday! P3/4 had an absolute blast, full of smiles and laughter. A huge thank you to our incredible PTFA for organising such a fantastic event. We really appreciate everything you do! 🎉
🌟 What a Week for Primary 6! 🌟 Our amazing P6 pupils have had a whirlwind of fun, learning, and adventure this week — and what a week it’s been! 🎉 🏃‍♂️ Monday kicked off with a burst of energy at Sports Day — full of races, cheers, and team spirit! 🏐 Tuesday brought a fantastic session of Gaelic with Oisín, where we honed our skills and had a blast on the pitch. 🐮 Wednesday was our exciting end-of-year trip to Ark Open Farm — we met animals, explored the outdoors, and made brilliant memories. ⚽ Thursday saw us team up with the other P6 classes for Actisport, with games, teamwork, and lots of laughter. 🧩 We also got stuck into some practical Numeracy, using Pentominoes to challenge our thinking and problem-solving skills. 🎈 And today? Our Fun Day was the perfect finale — packed with sunshine, smiles, and celebration! A huge well done to all our pupils for their enthusiasm and positivity throughout!🌞📚
