Owenabue Educate Together National School opened in September 2020, in Carrigaline, Cork as a one classroom school in the Carrigaline Lions Club. From September 2021, the school will be based in the building currently occupied by Sonas Special Junior Primary School and will have primary sized classrooms, support rooms and space for a sensory room, a Nurture room and an outdoor area including a play area. This is interim accommodation for the next few years, until the new purpose built permanent building has been completed.
Educate Together national schools are mainstream national schools, operating according to the Rules for National Schools as determined by the Dept. of Education & Science. There are currently over 100 Educate Together National Schools in Ireland and this number is growing every year.
We installed 8 Traverse Climbing Boards and a Junior Cocoon for Owenabue to get the children off to a climbing start on their return in September.
