Welcome to Caherea National School.
Our school was founded in 1961 and has always had a very close connection with the local community. It is a two-class school with a supportive atmosphere that encourages everyone to work and develop together. We have a separate room for special education teaching and a yard that includes a basketball court, an astro-turf, an outdoor learning area and a school garden.
We have two mainstream class teachers, one special education teacher and one special needs assistant.
In 2020, we opened a before and after school service for families in the school. This has been a tremendous success and it is of real benefit to all parents in the community.
