St Laurence’s Boys National School

Since 1840

Welcome

Welcome to St. Laurence’s. We are a primary school for boys, under the patronage of the Catholic Archbishop of Dublin. Our school is located on the Upper Kilmacud Road and we currently cater for approximately 440 students. We are a friendly school and welcome pupils from all denominations.

Our school aims to promote the development of the child as a whole. We foster a sense of community, respect and responsibility in our school. We encourage all pupils to have the confidence in themselves to reach their full potential.

Our highly skilled and talented team deliver a broad, child-centred curriculum, which is tailored to the different learning styles of our pupils. We recognise that each child is unique and we endeavour to develop their individual talents. An extensive programme of extra-curricular activities is provided, both sporting and cultural, during and after school.

We endeavour that when the final bell rings each day, all members of our school community, have had a rewarding experience and are enthusiastic about the following day in St.Laurence’s BNS.

Damian Moran.
School Principal.

Health

If a parent suspects that a child is feeling unwell in the
morning please do not send him to school. Should a child
become ill during school hours we normally ring home, or a
contact number, requesting the parent to come in and collect the
child. Only in emergency cases is a child taken directly to a
doctor. First aid rendered at school following cuts or bruises is
of a temporary nature and should be treated as such by parents.
Parents are expected to keep contact numbers and addresses up
to date on the school database. Please contact the office.

Homework

Lunch Break

Pupils take lunch in the classroom under the supervision of the teacher before going out to the yard. Teachers, assisted by parents and SNAs, supervise the yard during breaks. The yard is also supervised from 08.40a.m. until all classes have entered the school to commence their day. There are separate areas assigned in the yard to:
1. Junior Infants
2. Senior Infants
3. 1st Class/2nd Class
4. 3rd to 6th Classes
Minor first aid is administered by teachers and SNAs and in the event of more serious accidents parents will be contacted by phone. Hence the importance of accurate phone and mobile numbers.
