May we take this opportunity to welcome you to Carrick Primary School’s website.
Carrick Primary School first opened in 1939, and since then, our school has prospered and its good reputation has blossomed. Our pupils have enjoyed success not only in examinations but also in a wide range of other areas. This success is primarily due to the fact that our children are encouraged and challenged to explore their gifts, spiritual as well as intellectual, physical as well as social, in a warm and friendly atmosphere. We believe that children cannot learn if they are not happy. Therefore every effort is made to provide all the support that children need. We pride ourselves on the excellent staff-student relationships which exist in Carrick Primary School and on the effectiveness of our Pastoral Care provision. We value the services and support of our Parish Priest, Fr. D Mooney. This website has been designed to provide you with an insight into the life and work of our school. Our hope is that it reflects the genuine concern we feel, with regard to the needs of all our pupils and staff. If you require more information about any aspect of school life, please do not hesitate to contact me. Mrs Anne Cassidy PRINCIPAL |
