Fáilte, Welcome.

Fáilte go suíomh gréasáin Scoil Naomh Mhuire, Béal Tairbirt.
Welcome to Saint Mary’s Boys’ National School Website. The emphasis on our site is on the work and activities of the children, although you will also find a brief history of the school, staff information and some policies.
As Principal I would hope that our school is welcoming and that we can all work together in partnership for the education and well-being of your child. Together we will work to ensure that your child will develop to the best of his ability and potential. Our aim is to provide a place of high achievement, an environment where learning is fun, a school that is inclusive, child centred and friendly. We promote an appreciation and love of Irish culture and language while also encouraging a knowledge of and respect for other cultures within our school.
It is a privilege to be principal of such a great school and to work with such  dedicated staff, parents and Board of Management.
I hope you enjoy browsing.
