Scoil Cholmcille completed a new extension and complete refurbishment in August 2022. The building project cost more than 5.5 million euro resulting in a state of the art, 21st  century primary school building, equipped with a new sports hall, new library, 24 new digitally equipped classrooms, 13 new support rooms, 4 new lined play yards, 44 internal car park spaces and beautiful newly landscaped grounds. The school was awarded Best Public Building in November 2022.

Today, the school has 44 members of staff, including 9.5 SNAs. We have over 550 pupils, 480 more than the first enrolment over 125 years ago! We have children from 33 countries attending our school and they come from the four continents of the world, Asia, Europe, Africa and South America. We have children from India, Philippines, United Kingdom, Croatia, Brazil and Egypt to mention but a few.

We are an international school community but rooted in a strong Irish cultural tradition.
