Griffeen Valley Educate Together National School

Welcome parents, guardians, teachers and students. 

Thank you for visiting our new school website to learn more about Griffeen Valley Educate Together National School. Our school was established in Lucan in 2002. Since then, our school has grown and flourished into the wonderful place that it is today.

We are very proud of our fantastic pupils – past and present. As an Educate Together School the motto ”Learn Together to Live Together” is central to our school day, as are the four strands of the Learn Together Curriculum – Moral and Spiritual, Ethics and the Environment, Belief Systems and Equality and Justice.

Teaching at Griffeen Valley ETNS has always been an honour and a pleasure. Since 2006, through the roles of Assistant Principal, Deputy Principal and most recently Acting Principal, I have had the opportunity to work alongside an excellent group of colleagues, pupils and parents.

As Acting Principal, I am excited about our journey with the school community as we continue guiding Griffeen Valley ETNS to blossom and thrive.

Mise le meas,

Andrea.
