Fáilte

St. Brigid's GNS was established by the Holy Faith Sisters in 1928 to cater for the educational needs of the children of Killester parish and the surrounding area. The school supports the principles of

"inclusiveness, equality of access and participation in the school and respect for
diversity of values, beliefs, traditions, languages
and ways of life in society"

We are committed to nurturing the Catholic faith through religious education, preparation for the sacraments and through the ethos of the school. The ethos is demonstrated through respect shown for each person in the school - pupils, members of staff, parents and visitors. We value our relationship with parents and the community and we are committed to working in partnership with all involved in the education process so as the best interests of each child are catered for.

St. Brigid's Crosses

Mrs Delany’s Fourth Class made fabulous St. Brigid’s crosses to celebrate our patron saint’s special day. Thank you, Ms. Crowley, for bringing the reeds all the way from Roscommon and for teaching us how to make these very special crosses. We are so proud of how they turned out.

Budding Teachers in Room 9 Fourth Class

 

 

Mrs Delany's fourth class have been having so much fun this year. One of our Class Dojo Rewards is the option to 'teach the class'. We have had so many excellent lessons to date and the girls are thoroughly enjoying the experience. It's safe to say that we have many budding teachers in our midst. Take a look at some of the magnificent creations that the girls have made to date and tune in for many more to come, in the months ahead.

Fourth Class Biodiversity

The girls in Fourth Class have been learning all about biodiversity stewardship in a weekly workshop for the past 5 weeks. Visiting the community garden, they have investigated and learned about the oak tree, brambles, plants, insects and tree Ogham, under the expert guidance of Emer and Niamh from Global Action Plan. This truly amazing programme has opened their eyes to the beauty of our local natural environment and its inhabitants. Check out our school website to see what the girls have been up to and the pleasure and fun that they’ve enjoyed along the way.
