                                                                                      Picture
                                                                                      Yesterday 4th Class won a trophy for their participation in the BT Young Scientist & Technology Exhibition in the RDS in Dublin! Their exhibit was entitled: "Talking to Plants - Is it all just a load of hot air?"  Wow! GETNS truly is an academy of science and technology. This year 5th class participated in the Galway Science & Technology Exhibition with their project on 'Biomimicry' and the school recently won the prize for 'Best Website' in the Eircom Junior Spiders Awards. What's next? First child to land on the moon!?


                                                                                        

                                                                                      At the moment we are the only multi-denominational primary school in the city. 

                                                                                      Our school is founded on four basic principles: it is multi-denominational, co-educational, child-centred and democratically run, all of which you will read about in another part of the website. 

                                                                                      Fundamentally, these principles are aimed at creating the kind of school environment which allows for greater partnership in the education of our children. 
                                                                                      The professionalism of our teachers combined with the interest and enthusiasm of our parents creates a vibrant and energetic learning environment in which children can develop their full potential in a safe and secure place. Our school aims to develop a community in which all members are valued for whatever contribution they can make. 

                                                                                      We invite you to learn more about us from the website and assure you of a "Céad míle fáilte", if you would like to contact us.
