About Us

Naíscoil Íde is an infant school catering for the educational needs of children in the catchment area of Raheny. The school is under the patronage of the Catholic Archbishop of Dublin and there is currently a staff of twenty six people employed in the school. The school caters for a wide range of pupils from different backgrounds and of different abilities.

The school is in the heart of the dynamic community of Raheny and has been at its current location since 1958. The majority of pupils, upon completing first class in Naíscoil Íde, transfer to either Scoil Áine Girls National School or Scoil Assaim Boys National School which are located on the school campus.

It is our privilege to maintain the tradition of care, inclusiveness and commitment for the benefit of children, their parents and families.
