Principal's Message
I extend a warm welcome to you to our school website. We are extremely proud of our school and community and hope you enjoy your visit to our website.
Castlegar NS, established in 1940, is an extremely progressive school with excellent facilities for the provision of the holistic education of all its pupils.
Here at Castlegar we provide high quality education through a relevant and stimulating curriculum in a secure and purposeful environment. We integrate digital pedagogies throughout the curriculum. Classroom spaces are carefully organised to support learning and our well-resourced facilities and beautiful grounds create a sense of place.
The people in our community make our school a special place to be. Our teachers are highly skilled, progressive and dedicated. They work in collaboration to develop a school culture that values teaching and learning. They encourage all students to strive to achieve their best academically, socially, physically and emotionally.
Fostering a strong partnership between the family and the school through clear and continuous communication is a key element in students’ success at Castlegar .All parents are encouraged to be actively involved in their child’s education and in school events and decision making opportunities.
With the above in mind, It is with immense pride that I carry out my duties as Principal and I am always extremely grateful to the hard work and goodwill of our parents, pupils, teachers, SNAs, secretary, caretaker, as well as our Parents Association, Board of Management and the wider community of Castlegar all of whom help make Castlegar NS the unique, warm and welcoming school that it is.
