What do our 1st and 2nd Class students think of St. Peter's National School?

"I have 4 reasons why I love St. Peter’s - Playing with my friends, Aistear, i-pads and eating my treat on a Friday"
"My favourite thing about this school is having lunch with my friends in the classroom and making jokes"
"If you are a bit shy and you come here and meet all the other boys and girls in your classroom you get more used to the school and you can make new friends"
"My favourite time of the day is yard time when I get to see all my friends and play outside in the yard."

Meet our 1st and 2nd Class Teacher - Ms Cantwell

Rachel Cantwell
My name is Rachel Cantwell. I recently graduated from DCU Institute of Education with a degree in primary teaching. After completing my final year in college, I spent the majority of my first year as an NQT teaching 5th & 6th class in a developing school in Co. Meath. The hard
work and dedication put in by staff and the school community alike in a developing school comes with a special sense of belonging and reward. This is one of the many reasons I am looking forward to being a part of the St. Peter’s team this year. 

This academic year I am teaching 1st & 2nd class. I am excited to get to know the children and create a classroom full of teamwork, respect and fun! I enjoy teaching all subjects but I have a love for music and art. I love bringing out the creative side of the children in my class. 
​
When I was first introduced to some of the staff, I instantly felt welcomed and supported in the school environment.I feel very privileged to be joining the team here at St. Peters.
