I extend a warm welcome to you to the website for Scoil Cholmcille, Mount Hanover. I hope you find it enjoyable and informative.
Scoil Cholmcille Mount Hanover is often referred to as Mount Hanover NS. The school building dates back to 1961 and has been re-furbished extensively over the intervening years. A General Purpose Room was added in 2016 along with car parking facilities.
At Mount Hanover NS, we aim to provide a high quality education through a relevant and stimulating curriculum in a secure and purposeful environment. We integrate digital technologies throughout the curriculum. Classroom spaces are carefully organised to support learning and our well-resourced facilities and beautiful grounds create a sense of place.
Mount Hanover NS is privileged to be part of a special community. Our teachers are highly skilled and dedicated. They work in collaboration to develop a school culture that values teaching and learning. They encourage all students to strive to achieve their best academically, socially, physically and emotionally.
I am very proud to serve as Principal of Mount Hanover NS. I am extremely grateful to the hard work and goodwill of our parents, pupils, teachers, SNA, secretary, caretaker, as well as our Parents Association, Board of Management and the wider community of Mount Hanover all of whom help make Mount Hanover a truly special place.
Should you have any queries about our school, please do not hesitate to get in contact. Please visit as frequently as possible, so that you can keep up to date with all the activities in Mount Hanover NS.
Kind regards,
Lorraine O Loughlin,
Principal
The 5th & 6th class are working towards their first Blue Star Flag. This week they were working on European Countries. The children created a project on a country of their choice using the school Chromebooks. They then created a Google Slide on their chosen country. Well done everyone.
The 5th & 6th Class children are just finishing up the Claret & Gold Futsal programme. Thank you to Aoife from Drogheda United for working with the children.
They will have their final session on Monday February 16th. On Tuesday afternoon the children will have a meet & greet with two Drogheda United players in school. The children will have the opportunity to ask the players questions and get autographs.
We will be holding a fundraiser for the Alzheimer’s Society of Ireland on Friday February 27th. The children can wear their denims to school on that Friday. Suggested donation of €2 per child. If you wish you can donate online at our fundraiser page:

We will also have a child friendly information talk for 5th & 6th Class about dementia/Alzheimer’s that day.
Last month the boys and girls football teams began their next GAA competition. This competition involves small and large schools from the locality along the east coast.
They have had two matches so far. The Boys have two wins under their belts and the Girls have one win.
Well done to all our players!
Congratulations to our 6th Class children who received the Sacrament of Confirmation yesterday.
Thank you to Bishop Deenihan, Fr Stephen and Fr Brendan for a lovely ceremony.
Thank you also to the Parents Association for the lovely cupcakes for the class.
Busy working on some ‘Love’ themed art this month in 5th & 6th Class.
The 5th & 6th Class children are working towards the school’s first Blue Star Flag. The Blue Star Programme is an education initiative for primary school pupils across Ireland. The idea of the Programme is simple: to foster better understanding and knowledge of the European Union and how it affects the lives of Irish citizens among primary pupils through classroom projects and activities.
Our first activity was to learn all about the countries of Europe.
5th & 6th have been participating in a Futsal programme over the past 4 weeks ran by Drogheda United.
