Our Ethos
A Message from the Principal
Welcome to our wonderful school, St. Vincent’s Convent Primary, set in the historic heart of Cork’s Northside – a school steeped in tradition and history
Our pupils are our greatest source of pride – they never cease to amaze, challenge, and indeed, teach us. Their talents are given a safe space to shine brightly, be they academic, sporting, musical, or theatrical. Scientists, engineers, actors and environmentalists of the future are nurtured right here!
We are fortunate to have a superb team of professionals working together to ensure that each individual child is allowed to thrive academically, socially and emotionally.
Our Catholic ethos of respect and kindness permeates each conversation and interaction, and the hand of friendship is extended to every person in our diverse and inclusive school community.
Our promise is that your child will be supported, nurtured and celebrated for being the unique individual that they are.
Warm wishes,
Jan O’ Sullivan
Principal
Mission Statement of
St.Vincent's Convent
Primary School
We aim to reflect the vision of the foundress of the Sisters of Charity, Mary Aikenhead, in developing a sense of Christian meaning in the lives of the young people in our care.
We see the school as a centre of learning within the community, where our pupils are given the opportunity to grow and develop to their fullest potential in the moral, social, cultural and intellectual spheres.
This is done in an atmosphere of care and concern for the individual.
Collaboration between management, staff and parents is vital if the children are to realise the richness of their personalities and gifts, for the betterment of the community in which they live.
