Our First Day of School – Sept 2022

We finally opened our doors to our amazing new pupils on September 1st 2022. A great day was had by all and there wasn’t a single tear all day – well, not from the pupils anyway!

We feel very lucky to have such a great team of staff working with the children in our Autism Class and our Junior and Senior Mainstream Classes!

How to Find Us

Temporary Location

We are located in our own school building on the site of Holy Child Community School in Sallynoggin. It is best to google Holy Child Community School (A96 E0C9) to find us. There is no on-site parking for families or visitors but there is free parking on the street outside the school.

Our school building is at the back of Holy Child’s site and is accessible from the front entrance via a footpath around the right side of the school – see demo video below. Keep going until you see our single-storey building behind a green fence. If the gate is locked, please call 0851206196.

Permanent Location

Our permanent site is on Rochestown Avenue next to the old part of the National Rehabilitation Hospital in the area known as Woodpark. It is directly opposite the apartments at Kensington Lodge but cannot be seen from the road due to a wall obscuring the view. However, the site can be seen from the car park of the old part of the hospital. The Department is currently in the planning phase. Click on the image to see the location on Google Maps.

Our Temporary School Site

We are accommodated temporarily in fantastic standard modular classrooms on the site of Holy Child Community School in Sallynoggin. We are blown away by how spacious and bright our accommodation is. This is an excellent temporary location that offers great access to outdoor space, is a quiet location away from the noise and pollution of a busy road, is easily accessible and provides excellent safety and security for our children. We have already made ourselves feel very at home here.

Our temporary school building is accessible from the front entrance of Holy Child Community School via a footpath around the right side of the school. There is no parking for families or visitors on the school site which is standard for most schools. There is parking on the street outside the school, in front of the neighbouring church and outside the shops opposite the school.

We are particularly excited at the prospect of forging meaningful links and nurturing positive relationships with the students and staff of Holy Child and consider this to be an invaluable opportunity as we begin our journey as a new school. Holy Child school shares many aspects of the Educate Together ethos, living out the true spirit of inclusion and equality. The students have been praised by school inspectors for their ‘considered and compassionate nature’.

Our Permanent School Site

The Department of Education has acquired a permanent site for our school on Rochestown Avenue near the National Rehabilitation Hospital in the area known as Woodpark. It is directly opposite the apartments at Kensington Lodge but cannot be seen from the road due to a wall obscuring the view. However, the site can be seen from the car park of the old part of the hospital. The Department is currently in the planning phase.

We are now in the very fortunate position of knowing both the permanent and temporary locations of our school and are very grateful to be in this position at such an early stage. These sites being so close to each other is a further bonus that many new schools could only dream of.
