St. Mogue’s National School, Currin (Scoil Náisiúnta Naomh Maodhóg, Currin) is a co-educational Roman Catholic school under the patronage of the Catholic Bishop of the Diocese of Kilmore. There are three mainstream class teachers, two Special Education Teachers (SET) and two Special Needs Assistants (SNA) in the school. We currently have 68 children on our roll.
We are very proud of the school with its rich tradition of teaching and learning, together with sport and music. We take great pride in providing a safe and secure learning environment for all children of varying abilities and needs. Our school motto is: “Ag súgradh, ag foghlaim agus ag fás le chéile” (“Playing, learning and growing together”). Great emphasis is placed on fostering mutual and self-respect, which underpin the happy and secure atmosphere in our school.
Our staff is committed to establishing and maintaining a school environment that allows our pupils to grow spiritually, intellectually, emotionally, and socially.

The school crest has been updated, with the original colours and features retained. The navy trim and red body of the crest represent the traditional school colours, which make up the school uniform and school football jersey. The yellow feature in the centre of the crest represents the Killycluggin stone. On the stone, the tri-spiral (otherwise known as the “Spiral of Life”) represents the Celtic La Tene style of carving of that era. Most scholars believe the spiral of life represents the cycle of life, death, and rebirth
