Handcrafted gift for our junior infants

Thanks to the woodwork students in Celbridge Community School who created this beautiful dolls house for our junior infants to enjoy.

book fair

The Book Fair was a huge success again this year with children from all classes enjoying their time browsing and buying new books. Thank you to IES for providing a wonderful selection of books, to our PA who volunteered to help every day and to all the families who supported the Book Fair. We took in €7,840 and as a result, will now have €3,920 in credit to spend at IES on new books for our school.

Principal's address

​Welcome to our school website. We are very proud of it and we hope you enjoy your virtual tour of the school. Our parents are our partners in education and their ongoing support helps to make Scoil Mochua the thriving, busy, happy school that it is. 
​

First and foremost, the website was designed as a window for our parents into our school and into classroom life.  
​We want to share classroom stories and school life with our partners in education.  We feel that it is important to share these precious moments from the children’s school life - we know they generate smiles and warm the heart!  School life for our children is so varied, and the children are exposed to so many exciting learning opportunities.  We love to capture these on camera and post them on the website so that families can chat about them at home. 
​Of course, the website also attracts visits from grandparents, aunts, uncles and friends.   We are delighted and proud to welcome all of you.  Above all else in our school, we value the children’s happiness and their enjoyment of learning.  Their energy, inquisitiveness and level of engagement in learning never ceases to amaze us.  I hope some of this jumps off the pages as you browse through the photographs of class activities and school events.
For those of you who are history buffs, or are simply interested in learning more about Celbridge, you will enjoy reading about the history of Celbridge on the website.  Our lovely village is steeped in history – you will be amazed!
And, of course, the website is an excellent communication platform.  Read some of our policies, the school calendar, information on our super Parents’ Association, useful educational links to enhance your child’s learning, details on school sporting events – it’s all there.  You can also follow us on Twitter @scoilmochua for updates on the wide variety of learning that happens in Scoil Mochua.

Happy Browsing!​
Kind Regards,
Catherine Carragher, Principal.
