St. Michael’s N.S. is a mainstream co-educational school. The original school was first built in 1944. It was replaced by our new school in 1996.  The village has grown rapidly in the last decade and so has the school! What started as a two roomed two teacher school is now a bustling seven classroom school with 178 children, eight class teachers, a learning support teacher, a shared resource teacher, two special needs assistants and a secretary.

We are very conscious of our carbon footprint in our school. Last year we were awarded the European Green Flag for our efforts. Everyday a huge effort is made by all the members of our school community to reduce, reuse and recycle.
Some of the things we do:
Compost – members of the Green Flag committee go around to each classroom after lunch and collect all our fruit waste. They bring this to our composter, we will be using the compost in our school garden in the spring.
Recycle – every class has two bins – one is for paper & plastic materials which can be recycled the other is for non recyclable waste (we try to keep this one as empty as possible)
