ST MARY'S PRIMARY SCHOOL

The original St. Mary's Primary School was opened in 1855 by the Irish Christian Brothers. In 1874, the school was extended with new classrooms added. The school at St. Mary's Place was renowned for the high standard and quality of its education. In the 1930s all subjects were taught through Irish and under the direction of Vincent O'Brien, the St. Mary's School Choir became known as one of the best in the city and, for a while, only boys from St. Mary's were accepted into the newly-formed Pro-Cathedral Palestrina Choir... We were awarded the Green Flag for Litter and Waste in 2017. We are currently working on our Second Flag for Water... We are a happy, aspirational and inclusive school, reflecting the rich diversity of families in our local area. We want to provide the children in our care with creative and challenging learning opportunities so that they develop a strong sense of belonging and commitment to our school and their learning.
