Welcome to St. Aidan’s
A Nurturing Environment for Every Child
St. Aidan’s N.S., located in the townland of Smithstown, Shannon, is a welcoming, all-inclusive primary school catering to children aged 4-12. Since opening its doors in 1982, the school has gone from strength to strength, offering a holistic education in a safe, supportive, and nurturing environment. We are proud of our modern facilities, which include an Astroturf pitch, sensory garden, soft-play area, sensory room, and an on-site pre-school, all designed to support the varied needs of our students.
Every child matters
At St. Aidan’s, we foster a warm and friendly atmosphere, where each child is encouraged to grow and reach their full potential. A strong sense of community is at the heart of our school, with parents working closely with staff to ensure the wellbeing and success of every student. This partnership is key to creating a positive, inclusive environment where all children are valued, respected, and given the opportunity to flourish. St. Aidan’s is a place where every child truly matters, and where their individual growth and happiness are our top priorities.
