Our thought for the week
We are delighted to welcome Súgradh Le Chéile as a new service provider in Ballintubber Preschool and Afterschool. In addition to the Preschool service, full day care hours will be offered for school age children, including before and after school.
This school received a grant in 2021 to implement initiatives aimed at addressing the digital divide and support our learners at risk of educational disadvantages as a consequence, as part of the Irish National Recovery and Resilience Plan (NRRP) a project under the Recovery and Resilience Facility funded by the European Union through NextGenerationEU. This funding was used to purchase interactive whiteboards and associated equipment.
Welcome to our school
We are situated in the peaceful countryside of Ballintubber, 14km from Castlebar, close to Ballintubber Abbey. Steeped in rich historical traditions and a firm faith, we consider ourselves very lucky to attend a school that genuinely lives and promotes the care and education of all pupils and staff.
We are fortunate to have a Preschool within the school grounds which also serves as an After-School later in the day. The children who attend the Preschool are very familiar and comfortable in the school building and surrounds by the time they continue their learning journey in Junior Infants.
