Welcome to St Columba's Primary School

From the moment of birth, parents are aware that they have brought into the world a unique being ~ a gift from God.

By the time children come to school they have developed their own individual views of the world in which they live.

Teachers have a much greater understanding of how children learn and the best environment to provide the best conditions for learning.

In St. Columba's classrooms, within a mixed age setting, the focus is on the individual. The teacher builds on each child's understanding and encourages each to take responsibility for his or her own learning. In this setting of trust, a supportive classroom environment for optimum learning is created.
