Principal's Message

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to our school website. 

We are a co-educational school located in the village of Allenwood, Co. Kildare. Our school opened in August 2017 after the amalgamation of Allenwood BNS and Allenwood GNS. We currently have two buildings. The front building, formerly known as Allenwood BNS, was built in 1929. The back building, formerly Allenwood GNS, was built in 1957. We welcome children from the local catchment area of all faiths and nationalities. In Scoil Mhuire Allenwood we believe every person is a valued member of our happy, vibrant learning community. It is a Catholic school which strives to provide a caring, happy and secure atmosphere where the intellectual, spiritual, physical, moral, social and cultural needs of the pupils are identified and addressed. We hope to foster a love of learning and a yearning for knowledge amongst our students. We wish to ensure that all children are healthy, happy and safe, so that they may learn as much as they can during their time spent with us.

The implementation of a modern, innovative and interactive approach to teaching and learning ensures that every student is afforded a holistic educational experience.

In partnership with parents, the board of management and teachers we work to develop well educated, confident, balanced young people who are outward looking and are able to meet the challenges of life with common sense, integrity and resilience while rooted in a strong community bond.
