Our Curriculum

It encompases the five curriculum areas – Arts Education, Languages, STEM, Social and Environmental Education and Wellbeing.

Language – English and Irish with foreign language introduced in the upper primary.

S.T.E.M. – Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics, with hands on inquiry based learning.

Social and Environmental Education – learning about History, Geography and the wider world. 

Arts Education – Visual Art, music, drama, dance and media arts, nurturing creativity and self expression.

Wellbeing – P.E., S.P.H.E., supporting physical, emotional, and social development.

 This curriculum tailored to our own pupils and how it is implemented at Murhur NS, aids us in supporting : 

  • Diverse learning needs

  • Play based, hands on, inquiry led learning
  • Wellbeing as the foundation for our pupils to flourish and grow.
