What we’re all about

Dún Laoghaire Educate Together National School Principal

“At Dún Laoghaire ETNS, everyone is welcome. We are made up of a diverse community of people from all over the world — different backgrounds, genders, races, and religions.

We take pride in our strong sense of community and we foster a sense of belonging where everyone feels valued and supported.”

Curriculum and Initiatives

Wellbeing is a priority in our school. We offer a range of programs and initiatives that focus on social and emotional literacy and support learning beyond traditional academia. Some of these include Neurodiversity fortnight, Restorative Practice, Forest School, Intercultural Week, Ukulele lessons, Student Council, and more.

Parents

Part of the way we build a strong community spirit is by encouraging parents to get involved in daily life at school. We work in partnership with you, the parents and guardians, to ensure your voice is heard and each child is nurtured in a warm, creative, and happy environment.

We’re getting
a new home!

Right now we’re temporarily based on the campus of The Red Door School, Monkstown, Co. Dublin. The development of our new school building is underway on the site of the Old Fire Station on Bentley Villas in Dún Laoghaire. This will be a 16-classroom school with two more classrooms for children with additional needs.
