The work ethos in our school is very strong.  Our aim is for all students to achieve their potential and we strive to support our students to do this.  Our dedicated staff offer academic and emotional support to students.  The well being of students is supported through our pastoral care and extensive co-curricular programmes.  We hope that the students who leave us will go on to be participative members of the communities in which they live.  Moving on to a career and to college is a stepping stone in this journey.

We are very proud of all of our students, many of whom have faced adversity over the last six years.  Be proud of your achievements which are well deserved!

I wish to also thank you the parents who support us in our work here in school. I wish all of the class of 2024 every success for the future and encourage our younger students to follow their good example. 

With every good wish to you all

Dear Parents and Guardians,

We are delighted to invite you to the grand opening of our brand-new sports pitch on Friday, 4th October from 1:45pm. This marks a very exciting moment for our school community, and we are incredibly grateful for your unwavering support and generous contributions towards our fundraising efforts to date, which helped make this project a reality. We will also be offering any individual/business the opportunity to buy advertising hoarding around the pitch, which  is a great opportunity to enhance the visibility of your business and engage with customers. Please contact nmaher@loretofoxrock.ie for further details.

Throughout the morning, our students will take part in a variety of activities run by an inspiring group of female sports stars. It will be a wonderful opportunity for the children to learn, have fun, and celebrate the spirit of sportsmanship.

To make the event even more special, we’ll have goodies for the students and tea and coffee available for parents and guardians. For those who wish to treat themselves, there will also be an ice cream van on site.

The official ribbon-cutting ceremony, led by our Principal, Ms Prendiville, will take place at 2pm, followed by a past pupils hockey match – a fantastic way to commemorate the new pitch!

We look forward to seeing you there and sharing in the excitement of this special day. Please note due to activities, it will not be possible to drive into the school grounds from 1pm.

Loreto College Foxrock Open Evening. Thursday 19th September 6.00-8.00pm. Principal's Presentation in Concert Hall at 6.15pm and 7.15 pm.
