About Our School

St. Michael’s N.S. is a rural primary school in Mullinahone, Co. Tipperary, with a proud history and strong links to our local community.

We aim to provide a caring, inclusive environment where every child feels welcome and has opportunities to succeed. We value academic learning alongside creativity, physical activity, friendship and wellbeing.

Our Values

Be Safe • Be Ready • Be Kind

These simple Golden Rules help us build a positive school community. We support children in caring for themselves and others, making thoughtful choices and approaching learning with confidence.

Working Together

Children thrive when school and home work together. We value open communication with parents and guardians and appreciate the contribution of our staff, Board of Management, Parents Association and wider community.

 

Our History

Our school was established on its present site in 1902, originally as separate boys’ and girls’ schools. The building was rebuilt in 1961, and mixed classes were introduced following the amalgamation with Ballydonnell N.S. in 1966.

A major refurbishment and extension in 2003 provided additional classrooms, a P.E. hall and supporting facilities. A modular classroom was added in 2023 as our school continued to develop.
