Fáilte go dtí Scoil Eoin Baisde Cailiní Naoidh.

The Board of Management welcomes all our families to St. John the Baptist Infant Girls’ School, locally known as Belgrove IGS.

Our school motto is Is Deas A Bheith Óg.

It is our school’s priority to provide a safe, happy and stimulating place into which your child will love to come each day. We aim to provide a warm and caring environment where every girl can achieve her full potential educationally, physically, socially and emotionally. Kindness, care and understanding of children of such a young age help us to achieve our objectives.​
