St. Finian’s National School is a small rural national school situated in Dillonstown, Co Louth. St. Finian’s serves the fishing village of Annagassan and the Drumcar and Salterstown areas.
At present there are 95 pupils on the school roll. There are nine teachers, 2 SNAs, a secretary, bus escort, cleaner and caretaker on staff.
St. Finian’s aims to be a place where children will attain their full potential in an atmosphere of acceptance, security, respect and learning. We hope that each child will leave with a knowledge of their own worth and an appreciation of: the world around them, the rights of all pupils, and spiritual awareness. We hope that each child will have the skills to lead a fulfilled, creative and gainful life.
All members of our school community uphold our mission motto; “Respect, Learn, Grow Together”
