School Facilities

Library

In 2010 we opened our new Library. This room was specially designed to be a comfortable, accessible learning environment; fully equipped with an interactive whiteboard and hundreds of interesting books to cater for all ages. This room is used by all pupils. The library is stocked with numbers of reading schemes for all ages and abilities.

Home Economics

We have two Home Economics rooms fully equipped with 7 cooking / kitchen areas, to accommodate two pupils to each area. This facility is an excellent preparation ground for our pupils in providing them with opportunities to practice their life skills.

Art & Crafts

The Art & Craft room is a bright, airy room with plenty space to create large or small works of art. We have all the materials needed to allow for our pupils' creativity to blossom including a kiln.

Sports

The sports facilities in our school are truly second to none. We have an all weather AstroTurf pitch, a fully equipped gymnasium with shower facilities, changing rooms, an exercise room, a games room and a sensory room. We take great pride in our sports achievements both in the National arena and the International arena and our facilities have helped our pupils to learn the value of exercise in their everyday lives.

Activity Hub

In 2019 we opened our Activity Hub. The Hub is designed to provide sensory relief to pupils.

Woodwork

Our two woodwork rooms are fully equipped with machinery and tools, along with safety equipment. It is here that our students learn wood working skills which may help them into later life and or give them a profession that they can enjoy after their school life.

Horticulture

Our new horticulture room is large and bright and attached to a large potting area and green house. We also have large areas outside for planting vegetables, flowers and plants. Ex-President Mary McAleese plants a tree in our memorial garden.

Hair & Beauty

The Hair and Beauty facility is also a new addition to our school. We can now equip our pupils with skills which they can use in the world of work and also at leisure. The room is equipped with hairdressing sinks and everything that would be found in a hair and beauty salon. Pupils have the opportunity to learn how to wash and style hair, apply make-up and cleanse skin, along with learning about hygiene and maintaining healthy hair, skin and nails.

Exercise Room

The exercise room is stocked with numbers of stationary bikes, treadmills, cross trainer, steppers and other equipment. It is here where students can get fit and healthy in order to learn, play and have fun with life.

Primary Playground

The Playground was added last year and the Primary Classes enjoy using the trampoline, climbine frame, slides, swings and a quiet space beneath the playhouse for pupils to relax.
