Welcome to Ratoath Senior National School
Céad Míle Fáilte to our school website. It is my great privilege, as Principal of Ratoath Senior National School, to extend a very warm welcome to you.
We are a Catholic primary school committed to providing a caring, inclusive environment where every child is supported to reach their full potential. Our classrooms promote high expectations, active learning and individual growth.
Our dedicated staff take pride in offering a wide range of opportunities in sports, music and the arts, enabling our pupils to explore and nurture their individual talents. We actively promote creativity and innovation through our participation in the Creative Schools initiative and are equally enthusiastic about fostering curiosity and critical thinking skills through STEAM education. Our commitment to Irish culture and heritage is reflected in our proud involvement in the Gaelbhratach initiative, encouraging a love of the Irish language and traditions across the school.
Whether you are a current parent, a prospective family or a friend of the school, I hope our website gives you a glimpse of our vibrant and dynamic school community.
Le gach dea-ghuí,
Maggie McGivern
