Welcome to Coláiste Mhuire Buttevant

Welcome to the Colaiste. I hope that what follows will give you an insight into what makes the student experience in our school community truly unique and special. 

The past few years have marked a new chapter in the life of Coláiste Mhuire as we moved into our newly developed school campus in January 2016. The realisation of this campus has brought with it, great excitement and a huge sense of opportunity for our school community. Such state of the art facilities will support teachers and students as we strive to further develop our long standing tradition of quality education and care. 

It is important to us that each and every student feels welcome, secure and cared for within the school. The personal nature with which we carry out our daily business, where every teacher knows every student and where students are given individual attention in small classes is the cornerstone upon which our school community is built. Christian values are part of the everyday atmosphere and environment of the school. We want our students to leave school with self-respect and respect for others. 

We have an outstanding reputation for academic excellence, but the development of student’s intellectual and physical potential is also an integral part of the everyday school curriculum. 

We hope each student leaves school capable of taking his/ her place in the world and in society with an outlook that is emotionally, socially and intellectually developed. A sustained focus on excellence in teaching and learning and a constant commitment to the continuous professional development of our teaching staff, ensures achieving such goals is possible. 

Positive interaction between teachers and pupils and between home and school is very much the norm. Student self-worth is fostered in a positive and structured environment. We strive to make our school a safe and secure place where each student is accepted unconditionally. 

Should you require any further information please do not hesitate to contact the school.
