Mission Statement

St. Colmcille’s Senior School is a parish school and is guided in all its work by the Catholic Ethos.  We share with our community the responsibility for providing a rich, challenging and secure learning environment for all the children in our care.  The values of truth, justice and compassion are modelled, promoted and celebrated.
 
As a community of learners, we recognize the diversity of learning styles, talents and needs amongst our pupils.  We encourage their efforts and celebrate their success, believing that this is the key to developing positive attitudes, self-esteem and confidence in our students.
 
Great emphasis is placed on fostering mutual and self respect, values which underpin the happy and secure atmosphere in our school.  We seek to instil in our pupils a pride in our own Irish culture and a respect for the richness of other cultures.
 
High standards and high expectations are promoted in our endeavours but, above all, we seek to instill in our children a joy of learning which they will carry with them throughout their lives and will enable them as responsible citizens to play a full and positive role in society.
