Welcome to Scoil Mhuire, Borrisokane.
Originally built in 1949 as the Boys’ School, Scoil Mhuire became a co-educational school in 1997 following amalgamation with the Convent National School. Since then, it has continued a proud tradition of teaching and learning and has been the starting point of education for many children in Borrisokane.
At Scoil Mhuire, we provide a happy, secure and respectful environment where every child and adult is valued. We strive to know our pupils as individuals so that each child feels special, supported and encouraged to reach their full potential through a holistic curriculum.
We promote confidence, wellbeing and positive educational experiences, supporting pupils in their academic, social, personal and health development. Our aim is to give every child the best possible start across all areas of learning.
Scoil Mhuire is a Catholic school under the patronage of Bishop Fintan Monahan of Killaloe. We are an inclusive school, welcoming children of all faiths and none.
Our School Code
De réir a chéile a thógtar na caisleáin.
Mighty castles are built from tiny pebbles.
Our School Crest
Our school is representative of all aspects that we take pride in. It was derived from our pupils and chosen by our pupils. The key represents the knowledge and experiences all children will unlock while on their learning journey in Scoil Mhuire. It also represents the Diocese of Killaloe. The three children jumping represent the mindful, fun, active and involved learning style we promote in Scoil Mhuire for the teaching of all pupils. The hurley and ball represent the sport in our school and local community. The tree of knowledge represents the curricular and extra-curricular subjects taught to our children.
