Church of Ireland – Eaglais na hÉireann
St Peter’s National School is the Parish School for the Church of Ireland Dunboyne and Rathmolyon Group of Parishes. The Patron of our school is the Most Revd Patricia Storey, Bishop of Meath and Kildare. Our Board of Management governs the school on behalf of the Bishop, and is generally chaired by the Rector of the Parish.
The Church of Ireland has approximately 400,000 members across Ireland and is part of the wider Anglican Communion which has approximately 77 million church members worldwide.
St Peter’s School was founded in 2004 and until 2024 had its campus beside St Peter’s Church of Ireland in Dunboyne, before moving to our new purpose-built school buildings.
The connection between the Parish and School is deep, and the local Rector / Curate leads Assemblies and provides Pastoral Care to the entire School Community.
St Peter’s Church of Ireland School is:
Christian in Ethos.
Child-centred, and encourages holistic development.
Co-educational.
Welcoming to children of all faiths and none.
Democratically run, where teachers, parents / guardians and the church community all work in partnership through the board of management on behalf of the patron.
A happy place, where children enjoy learning and are encouraged and motivated in a nurturing atmosphere to fulfil their unique potential.
A place where Christian values of faith, honesty, justice, respect and fairness are nurtured and protected.
