Welcome

Dia Daoibh,

A very warm welcome to our website.

Ardkeeran NS is situated in the village of Riverstown, Co.Sligo. We provide a welcoming, inclusive, caring, and safe environment where all pupils are equally respected.

Every child is welcome, and we encourage, motivate, and inspire every child to be the best they can be.

We have highly motivated teachers who, with the support of our wonderful SNAs work tirelessly to provide the highest quality teaching experiences to our pupils.

Our school community is made up of 111 wonderful pupils, 9 teachers, 3 SNAs, our secretary, Maeve, and our caretaker, Alice.

I would like to thank you for visiting our website. You will find lots of information about our school and the amazing work that goes on there. You can also visit our Facebook page to see even more photographs.

We are involved in many initiatives such as Active Flag, Amber Flag, Green Flag, Discover Primary Maths and Science, Shared Education and we have a newly formed “Student Council”.

We also have lots of sport such as swimming, GAA, Rugby and Soccer. The children also get numerous opportunities to go on educational trips.

If you require any further information, please don’t hesitate to contact us on admin@ardkeeran.com or 0719165411.

Next week, we are permanently taking down our old school website, https://ardkeeranns.scoilnet.ie/ and our old school blog https://ardkeeranns.scoilnet.ie/blog/ As they served us well over the years, there are many photos and memories on these sites. If you would like to download any of these, whether you are a past pupil or a parent reminiscing on when your child attended Ardkeeran N.S., please do so, as they will not be accessible after Wednesday the 29th of October. From then on, we will be only keeping this facebook page and our new school website live https://www.ardkeerannsriverstown.ie/home/
