Welcome

As the Principal of Coláiste Aindriú, I am proud to lead a community where every student is known and valued. Our small size is one of our greatest strengths, allowing us to provide personalised attention and a nurturing environment for each child. Our inclusive environment ensures that every student’s unique ability and strengths are recognised and nurtured. Our dedicated staff works closely with families to create tailored learning opportunities and experiences that promote growth, confidence, and success. We look forward to partnering with you in your child’s educational journey
