Anti - Bullying Week 14th - 18th November

Here in Lurga NS  we hold as central, respect for the dignity of every child.  As a Catholic school we uphold the teaching of Christian values and educating the child for life.

We strive to maximize the potential of each child by developing self-esteem, consideration for others and a critical evaluation of life.

 We acknowledge that education is a partnership and we endeavour to maintain strong links with parents and see them as the primary educators of their children.

We value a spirit of co-operation and a happy learning environment and welcome partnership with the wider community.
​
We aspire towards developing right attitudes towards justice and tolerance and we respect diverging views of minorities within our school.

​Clarin College Athenry National Schools
Hurling & Camogie Invitational Tournaments 2022

​Congratulations to the 2022 winners of the Clarin College Athenry National Schools Hurling & Camogie Invitational Tournaments - Lackagh NS and Craughwell NS. The standard of hurling and camogie from all of the schools was extremely high.  Our Lurga girls fought with determination, skill and team spirit, winning 2 out of the 4 games.  Our Boys were heartbreakingly beaten in the final by 1 point, in the dying seconds of the game by a goal.  We are so  proud of all our students who took part in this fantastic event.
The BOM is delighted to announce that our school and wider community have been awarded Clár Funding to the value of €50,000 to develop some of our MUGA (Multi Use Games Area).
