Local Naíscoils
Naíscoil is often the first step on your child’s IME journey. Through play-based learning experiences your child will cover the Pre-School Curriculum focussing on 6 key areas of learning, just as they would in any pre-school. This will prepare them to transition to primary school but also ensure they make progress and achieve their full potential. BUT, in Naíscoil we add a 7th area of learning… Irish! So even if you choose English medium primary school, your child will have covered the same curriculum but benefitted from an enhanced experience!
