Our pupils' wellbeing is at the core of all we do here in Scoil Chaitríona. We know that mental health and wellbeing are critical to our children's success, in school and in life, and we strive to ensure that all of our pupils are not only life-long learners but happy, healthy and confident children. We pride ourselves on the safe, supportive environment we provide, in which our pupils flourish; building life-skills, positive relationships and a strong connection to our school and community. The well-being of our school staff is also paramount in providing the best care and education to our pupils. We are lucky to have a positive, enthusiastic and caring staff who help to create the warm, friendly and welcoming atmosphere in our school. We in Scoil Chaitríona appreciate the importance of our pupils' parents and families in ensuring our children's happiness and success into the future. We welcome and promote parental involvement in our school, as well as fostering strong partnerships within our community, to the benefit of all our pupils.
