FICHE BLIAIN FAOI BHLÁTH
Welcome to Johnstown Boys National School
Failte is fiche romhat go dtí ár suíomh greasáin leasaithe. You are very welcome to our upgraded website. This is a very special year for our school as we celebrate our 40th birthday. "Fiche bliain ag fás. Fiche bliain faoi bhláth".
I trust that you will gain some insight into our school in your visit to our website. As a school we are dedicated to providing the best possible education for all our pupils in a caring and happy environment so that each child realises his full potential.
We hope to give you an overview of the many and varied school activities that take place. We also feature some policies that have been devised in the school. The website is also used a means of communicating with parents.
If you wish to visit our school or seek further information please contact the school and make an appointment. We look forward to seeing you.
Beir bua is beannacht.
Yours sincerely,
Neil Cadogan.
Principal.
