Message from the Principal

It is a great privilege to share what makes Scoil Mhuire a unique school.

We endeavour to contribute to the transformation of all the students in our care into mature young adults, equipped with the knowledge, skills and moral compass to embrace whatever opportunities and challenges that may come their way.

Scoil Mhuire recognises the need to adapt to the ever changing needs of today’s world and as such we continually strive to review and improve our programmes, practices, facilities and policies.

Scoil Mhuire tries to utilise the resources human, physical and financial to provide the best possible environment to cater for our diverse student population. 

Welcome to the Scoil Mhuire Carrick on Suir website

Scoil Mhuire’s Mission Statement: “Scoil Mhuire is a Christian, caring community which encourages the integrated development of every individual concerned”.

Every member of this community – teachers, students, staff, parents – feel a sense of commitment and belonging.

Our principal objective is to provide for our students a broad and balanced education in all its aspects – intellectual, emotional, physical, moral and cultural. This objective is achieved within a controlled but relaxed and happy environment.
