Clondrinagh National School is a small rural school in the parish of Lissycasey/Ballynacally, Co. Clare. It is situated 20 km from Ennis.

With just 23 children enrolled at present, we are in an ideal position to give each child individual attention every day.

The school is open from 9.15 a.m. and classes begin at 9.30 a.m. Morning break is at 11.00 a.m. and lunch is from 12.30 p.m. to 1.00 p.m. The school day ends at 3.10 p.m.

Physical Education

All strands of the revised Physical Education Curriculum are covered throughout the school. The children have the opportunity to play on the Lissycasey/Ballynacally parish Primary School teams (boys and girls) in the annual Cumann na mBunscol football leagues. They also receive coaching from experienced hurling and football coaches each year.

Computers

Computers / I.T. are used in all classes from Junior Infants.

Music

Music is considered a high priority and all children learn to read music and play recorder. We hold an annual Concert in the school where we get the opportunity to perform for the community.

We go on a school tour every year. In addition, trips to music and drama events are frequently organised.

Green Schools

Clondrinagh National Schools is proud to be participating in the Green-Schools Ireland program.

This program encourages our students to be more aware of the environment, and take practical steps to reduce waste and improve the community.
