An update on privacy

To protect our pupils’ privacy and wellbeing, we no longer share photographs of students on our public website. In light of evolving digital technologies, including developments in artificial intelligence, and in keeping with best practice in child safeguarding, we are mindful of how children’s images are shared online.

However, photographs and updates from school life are shared directly and securely with parents through our private digital communication platform. This ensures families remain closely connected to their child’s learning and experiences in a safe and secure way.

If you would like to learn more about the many wonderful activities taking place in our school, we hold an Open Evening each October for enrolment for the following school year. The date is announced on our website, in the church newsletter, and on signage outside the school.

If your family is moving into the area during the school year, please feel free to contact us on 093 31415 or at glencorribns@gmail.com to arrange a visit. We would be delighted to welcome you.

Good Luck Mayo!

We are celebrating a very exciting day in Glencorrib N.S. today ahead of the All Ireland Football Final between Mayo and Tyrone tomorrow.

All of our wonderful pupils arrived to school in a sea of green and red this morning for ‘Mayo Day’!

All of our staff and pupils would like to wish the Mayo team and management the very best of luck for tomorrow! We are keeping all of our fingers and toes crossed for you here in Glencorrib!

Up Mayo!!

 

 

Green Fingers!

Our senior room replanted our window boxes today with some beautiful dianthuses, violas and pansies!

Hopefully this dry weather will continue and we will be busy watering them for many weeks to come!

 

First Day of School!

Today was such an exciting and special day in Glencorrib N.S as it was our first day back to school.

It was fantastic to see all our lovely pupils return this morning with such big smiles on their faces!

This year we are delighted to welcome our new Junior Infants – Aoibhinn, Charlotte, Dara, Ellie, Esmé, Leon, Niamh, Odhrán and Sarah. We wish them all a happy and successful journey with us here in Glencorrib and we look forward to lots of fun times ahead with them all.

 

6th Class Graduation

As always, the excitement on our last day of school was tinged with sadness, as we bid farewell to our wonderful 6th class pupils, Jonathan, Kevin, Angie, Ethan and Liam.

We will miss them all but wish them continued success and happiness as they graduate from national school and move into a new and exciting chapter of their lives in secondary school.

We would like to take this opportunity to wish all of our pupils and families a very happy, healthy and safe summer holidays. We look forward to welcoming you all back to Glencorrib NS in September.

 

 

 

Sports Day

Monday was a very exciting day in school as we held our annual ‘Sports Day’.

In the morning, we had great fun competing in lots of fun races including egg and spoon, three legged race and the sack race.

In the afternoon, our teachers set up different activities for us including a ‘Throw the Welly’ and a ‘Picking Potatoes’ competition.

We all had a great, fun-filled day!

They did a fantastic job! Well done boys and girls!

We look forward to celebrating the First Communion on Sat 9th October at 12pm.
