Moneynick Primary School is a central school in the Parish of Duneane. Our Parish is home to three reverent churches; Sacred Heart Church Cargin, St. Oliver Plunkett's Toome and Our Lady of Lourdes Moneyglass. As a school we celebrate the Sacraments of Reconciliation, First Holy Communion and Confirmation in our Parish Church and we contribute to youth masses throughout the year to embed the spiritual development of our pupils. Our Catholic Ethos is visible in our School through the presence of our altar devoted to Mary, sacred garden, school masses and our daily interactions. Our Primary 7 class form our pastoral council, a role which aids their preparation for their sacrament of Confirmation and allows them to uphold the strong catholic ethos and values taught within our school and Parish.
