About Our School
Colehill National School (St. Sinneach’s N.S.) is a co-educational, child-centred, rural school, under the patronage of the Bishop of Ardagh and Clonmacnoise. It is situated in Colehill, Co. Longford – 2 km from Abbeyshrule, 3km from Carrickboy, 8km from Ballymahon, close to the Longford-Westmeath border.
In our school, we promote the Catholic ethos – respect, kindness, compassion, working to the best of one’s ability, acceptance of difference. Children of all faiths and none are always very welcome in our school; parental choice in faith development is always respected here. For those who wish, pupils are given the opportunity to prepare for the Sacraments of Penance, Holy Communion and Confirmation.
