Quotations from Pupils responses to the P7 Leavers' Questionnaire

'Would you recommend this school to parents looking for a primary school for their little P1 child' and

'Explain your answer'

I would definitely recommend this school to anyone because they help you to fully understand that you can truly accomplish anything you put your mind to. The teachers take the time to get to know you and your interests in school helping you look forward to every day. This school has secured my confidence for going forward by giving me valuable life lessons not just in math and english but in my teamwork and friendship skills as well. I am so sad to leave St. Clares Abbey P.S but I know that the future of St. Clares Abbey is very bright

For children who have a lot of energy and are not very calm we provide people like Mrs Mc Keown and Mr Burn and Miss Burn to come down and help and play with them to calm them., The level of education we got in this school was amazing, we also have one to one devices. In P7 you get to do a project called giving back which is so fun.

After being 7 years in ST.Clare's abbey P.S. I know I'll be confident to keep up with the work in the Abbey Grammar. In assembly, we also have presentations that our P7s explain about needs, allergies or having diseases

We are a religious school with a forest, a football pitch, a garden with a green house. We provide stuff you need like ear defenders, inhalers, and an ECPD room. we also have a choir and we do feis, plays, drama and choral speaking. And if your child has an allergy we can take care of them

I would definitely recommend St Clares Abbey as a school for your child as we have a lot of resources to help your child learn no matter what their work rate is. We have a lot of activities to take part in such as after school gaelic, our school choir, drama and choral speaking and much more. Our older children also help the younger children learn and feel safe in our school.

This school is caring and fun because of the pitch

It's a brilliant school The staff are outstanding. The dinner ladies work very hard to make the most delicious meals. Helping me and other people through hard times .

It is a great school and is very including, once you get into the older years you get an ICT device each and the younger kids get a device each once a week.

Because the teachers are nice and there is the bloom room and the sunshine room. If your child is angry or sad, it will help them to relax and it helps me alot.

If you come to this school and your talent is literacy you can shine the same with sport and numeracy and any other talents. And the first aid is very experienced and the school dinners are lovely. All the teachers classroom and the assistants are amazing. And the principle and vice principle even the office are very kind

It is a very accepting and respectful school that will always take care of your child. They also have amazing staff that will keep you safe and will teach you very well. I think that this is an amazing school overall that will teach you stuff not just academically but also how to be kind and how to respect others. I have 2 sisters that have went to this school and we have all done very well with our academics. My eldest sister is studying law in university, my other sister is in Sacred Heart and I am also going to Sacred Heart. I would 100% recommend this school for your kids.

Children at the start might not be as calm in the first year of St Clare's Abbey so we can make that stop we can take time to calm down and we can help make new friends. we have a football pitch for children to play on that we share we also have the sunshine room to calm down. Miss Byrne is very good at helping with relaxing and we have zones of regulations so we aim to get into the green zone which is calm.

I think that coming into this school isn't just fun, it's an honour to join this school, the staff have such good patience with the younger kids no matter what's going on with, i love the school and will 100% recommend this school to the parents and kids. They excell in everything I could have ever imagined

It's like this school has everything for almost everyone, I was weak in learning when I came here for the first time, but after a couple months I was already going to be the smartest in my old school.

I feel like i couldn't have had a better school for the first 7 years of learning in my life. The staff are so kind here they help you with everything to not knowing something in your work to hurting yourself out in the yard to some worries that you have in your life. Mrs Monaghan and Mrs Donnely are the best principal and Vice Principal you could ever have if a young or old student is being bold they will not scream or shout at you they will just talk to you and they will be patient and sort it out even if it takes a really long time.

I really like the school dinners the Dinner Lady's and Canteen workers are so nice to you. The classroom assistants are so nice to you.

I feel like I have grown maturley and have had fun and learnt a lot more than what I thought I had to learn. I've also had a lot of ups and downs but it is a great school and if you have Mrs Mc Govern you will have the BEST year ever the school knows a good teacher and classroom assistant when they see them

It is the most brilliant school the food , teachers , and every single assistant . They are brilliant helping you in every way no matter what it is.

When I first joined this school in P5 I was instantly loved by my class everything is just perfect in this school I would say its the best school I have ever have been to. Everything here is lovely as I love god and learning. The suplies in the school are fantastic Our assistant is the best classroom assistent in the world she's been here ever since I joined she's always helped me through the years always saying nice things about me and I'm sad I have to leave here. I've only been here but they've treated me wonderful . If you come here we will make you the best.

I just joined this school this year and it was brilliant.

Because all the staff understand your problems and you get lovely food and not too hard work and I am sad to leave my childhood school and ECPD.

Good support for anxiety, shyness, etc, etc. A bit frivolous, but the school dinners are LOVELY.

Yes its a good school but what people don't see is the work that is put in to make us do our best and to never say you can't do something.

I joined the school only at p7 and I was SHOCKED!! The school helped me with anything I asked for. and they even treat you like a VIP. I think St Clare's Abbey is a special school and it is the GREATEST SCHOOL EVER!

I would recommend this school because you get to do amazing activities such as sports days, school trips Halloween discos non uniform days Chrsitmas dinners , giving back projects and sponsored walks. The teachers have been supporting me ever since I joined they are not strict but fun! And we have a football pitch. If we are ever sad the teachers and assistants always find a way to boost our mood. No matter who you are where you're from they are always the nicest. The staff are so sweet we have a school code and crack the code if you crack it. Send your child or children to Saint Clares Abbey I'm sure they will love it!!!!!!!!!

If you want a great school for your child here is the place and here are some reasons 1. if your child needs extra support or movement brakes 2.the staff are so lovely. 3. if your child needs to get out for 1 2 1 work 4. they will help you if you have anxiety asd or adhd etc 5. if you like food the school dinners are lovely 6. the building is lovely and spacious 7.
