Parish Schools

An immense contribution was made in providing schools by the Sisters of Charity of St. Paul the Apostle. They purchased 50 acres of land known as “Taylor’s Farm”, which stretched from Limekiln Lane to Limekiln Road. On this land they built the present St. Paul’s Girls Senior Primary School which opened on 19 January 1965. This was followed in 1978 by St. Paul’s Junior Girls Primary School. St. Paul’s Girls Secondary School opened on 27 September 1965. The Sisters also donated the land on which St. Peter’s Boys Primary School was built on Limekiln Road in 1967 by the parish of Walkinstown. Greenhills Community College, which was opened in 1970, has provided excellent education for the young men of the parish.
