Principal’s Welcome

Dear Parents & Guardians,

I would like to warmly welcome you to St Patrick’s National School, Stackallen. We are a Roman Catholic primary school under the patronage of the Bishop of Meath. We are based in a lovely rural setting and pride ourselves in our warm, welcoming and vibrant philosophy.

St Patrick’s N.S., Stackallen is an innovative school which draws on the combined talents and skills of pupils, staff, parents and the local community, to provide a holistic education for the pupils in our care.

This includes the pupils’ academic, spiritual, moral and physical development. The full primary school curriculum is taught and pupils also participate in an extensive range of extra-curricular activities. Care is also taken to ensure that the well-being and happiness of each and every pupil in the school is provided for in the best possible way. We have a wonderful staff who are committed to ensuring that each child reaches their full potential while in our care.

We are very fortunate to have an extremely supportive Parents Committee. Parent nominees are also represented on the school’s Board of Management, the group of people entrusted to run the school.

In our school we strive to create a happy safe and child centred education. To do this we like to embrace the support of all our parents. We therefore look forward to working in partnership with you in the interest of your child’s all round learning and personal development.

Beir bua agus beannacht,

Rebekah Rafferty, Principal
