Welcome to the website of Scoil Mhuire Knockavilla National School, a school where our greatest assets are the children themselves.

Scoil Mhuire is a Catholic school which nurtures a positive, co-operative educational environment. We welcome children of all faiths and beliefs from our community. We are committed to the principle of inclusion and encourage respect for all.
We are proud of our reputation for nurturing pupils, both academically and spiritually. Scoil Mhuire enjoys an enviable reputation as a school which, for many generations, has expected, and achieved, high standards for its school community.

We are a forward-looking school which recognises the importance of educating pupils for the 21st Century. At Scoil Mhuire we aim to create a happy, caring, Catholic ethos in which every child is valued and given the opportunity to realise their potential. We have high academic, social, sporting, cultural and behavioural standards and we are very proud of the achievements of our children.

The pupils of Knockavilla N.S. speak for themselves. Wherever we go, we always receive wonderful comments and compliments about the behaviour of our children. We pride ourselves on having happy pupils who achieve excellent things.

In Scoil Mhuire we strive to provide an encouraging, stimulating environment with a culture of respect, where our pupils begin to take responsibility for themselves, our community and the world in which we live. Children develop their self confidence as learners and are encouraged to progress socially, emotionally and spiritually.

Ours is a school where children are happy and love to learn.
