We have a new school motto! A motto tells everyone what our school represents, what our values are and the experience we believe every child should have in our school
Our new school motto is: “Ag súgradh, ag foghlaim agus ag fás le chéile” (“Playing, learning and growing together”).
We have intentionally put “ag súgradh” first in our motto as we aim to ensure our school is a welcoming, fun and safe environment for every child. Great emphasis is placed on fostering mutual and self-respect, which underpin the happy and secure atmosphere in our school.
“Ag foghlaim” – we strive to have a very high standard of teaching and learning in our school. High standards and high expectations are promoted, but above all, we seek to instil in our children a joy of learning, which they will carry with them throughout their lives and will enable them as responsible citizens to play a full and positive role in society.
“ag fás” means growing – not just physical and academic development, but moral, spiritual, social and personal development.
And we do all this “le chéile” (together) – a collaborative approach by pupils, parents, teachers and the wider community.
