Loreto Junior School is a Catholic primary school under the patronage of the Catholic Archbishop of Dublin and managed by the Loreto Education Trust. We cater for the education of boys and girls from Junior Infants to Second Class. The children transfer to Loreto Senior Primary School for Third to Sixth Class.

We are an inclusive school community and we welcome pupils of different nationalities, religions and cultures. We are happy to provide for pupils with special education needs. The policies, practices and attitudes of the school are rooted in Gospel values and inspired by the Loreto tradition of excellence.

Mary Ward, the foundress of Loreto, promoted the core values of love, freedom, truth, justice, sincerity and joy in her life and mission. The ethos of our school is based on the development and promotion of a school community where these core values are a lived experience for pupils, parents and staff.

At the heart of everything we do is the principle is that ‘We are all God’s children and everyone is special.’

Our root beliefs are:

• God loves us
• Everyone is learning all the time
• We must care for the world we share
• We must work hard and never give up
• Learning is the ladder to your dreams
