Welcome to our School
Principal’s Message
Tá fáilte romhaibh go suíomh greasáin na scoile, is mór an ónóir dom ár scoil a chur os bhur gcomhair.
Claregalway Educate Together National School (CETNS) opened in temporary accommodation in 2005 with 29 pupils and two teachers. Since then it has grown considerably to a school of over 200 pupils and a staff of 22. We are very fortunate to be in a new permanent school that is bright, warm and modern and offers all of the resources and accommodation that are needed to support top class teaching and learning.
We are an equality-based, state-funded, co-educational school under the patronage of Educate Together.
Our aim is to prepare and support the education of kind, caring, socially conscious, critically-thinking young citizens of the future. We do this by implementing the national Primary School Curriculum as laid down by the Department of Education and Skills, all the while being mindful of the unique ethos of Educate Together– an inclusive, multi-denominational school that strives for equality and excellence in education.
Inclusivity underpins everything we do in CETNS with each child, parent and family being equally valued. As an equality based school we seek to nurture the beliefs of children of all faiths and none. We have developed a strong and caring whole school community, which has helped us grow from strength to strength. We actively encourage participation and partnership with our parents and guardians. These elements, combined with a determination to help each child achieve their potential, not just academically but as a person, are what makes CETNS so special.
Ar aghaidh linn ag foghlaim le chéile agus óna chéile.
