A Word from our Principal.
Welcome to Whitegate NS -Scoil Cholmáin school website. Please have a browse.
We are a coeducational primary school, situated on the edge of Cork Harbour. Whitegate NS ( in Whitegate village) is ten minutes from Midleton and five minutes from both Saleen/ Scartleigh and Aghada. Ballycroneen and Cloyne are also close by.
Scoil Cholmáin - Whitegate NS is under the patronage of the Diocese of Cloyne. We are a Catholic primary school and are inclusive of all. We welcome students and families of all faiths and none, valuing good relationships and a spirit of community, above all else.
We strive to help every child reach their own unique potential. We deliver the Primary School Curriculum, participate in several educational initiatives and teach in a way that tailors the learning experience to suit your child. Our small classes mean great attention for all our students.
We have a long tradition of accommodating students with Special Educational Needs and have made several modifications to the original school building for this purpose.
Recently we completed a fantastic new extension. This includes a 120 sqm Hall, proudly funded by the school community, as well as two new large classrooms and a Teachers' Resource Centre . Our school is fully IT compliant, with IWB facilities, computers and visualisers in all classrooms. We have just upgraded the windows in the older part of the school to a very cosy double glazing.
We are in the process of tendering for the completion of a canopy to connect the new and old part of the school in a weather friendly way.
'Happy Hearts' Montessori Pre School is now located in Whitegate NS.
Please feel free to surf our site and revisit as we are in the process of editing
