A message from the Principal Kiera O'Sullivan
On behalf of all our staff and students, it is my privilege to welcome you and your
daughter to our school.
Coláiste Bríde, founded by the Sisters of Mercy and now under the trusteeship of
CEIST (Catholic Education in Irish Schools Trust) is a catholic, all girls, secondary
school. In keeping with the Mercy ethos, we welcome girls of all religions and none, all
nationalities and traditions to our school, and strive to work together for the benefit of
every student.
Teaching and learning is at the heart of what we do here in Coláiste Bríde, and we
are committed to helping every student to achieve her full potential, while being provided
with a first class education. Our state examination results reflect this commitment to excellence in teaching
and learning, and the achievement of high academic standards.
We live in challenging times, and this school offers our students the possibility of graduating with a lot
more than academic achievement. A huge emphasis is placed on the social, spiritual and personal development
of students outside of the academic sphere of the classroom. This is certainly evident in the vast range of extracurricular
activities, in which all students are encouraged to participate.
As Principal, I am thrilled to be leading the school forward, building on the tremendous achievements of
its past, and being part of its unfolding and exciting future. I am also very privileged to work with a staff that
is highly professional, enthusiastic and energetic, and whose dedication underpins the warmth and vitality of
this great school.
Coláiste Bríde is a happy, busy, vibrant community. I hope that this prospectus captures some of our
energy and vibrancy, and gives you a glimpse of the richness and diversity of life in Coláiste Bride. You will
find further information on our school website www.colaistebride.ie.
Should you have any queries, please do not hesitate to contact me.
Best Wishes
Kiera O'Sullivan
