Welcome to St. Brigid’s Primary School, Altamuskin's website.

St. Brigid’s Primary School, Altamuskin is a caring and inclusive school where every child is valued and encouraged to reach their full potential.

Guided by our mission, “Strive to be better every day,” we aim to create a positive learning environment where children are supported to grow academically, spiritually and personally.

As a Catholic school inspired by St. Brigid, we seek to empower every child to learn with joy, grow with courage and act with kindness in a community built on respect and belonging. 

Our school values of Belonging, Respect, Resilience, Gratitude, Faith and Kindness are at the heart of everything we do and help shape our pupils into confident, compassionate and responsible individuals.

Working in partnership with parents and our wider community, we encourage our children each day to live out these values and always strive to be better.

We hope you enjoy exploring our website and learning more about life at our school.
