Welcome
Dear Parents/Carers,
Welcome to Ballylifford Primary School – a caring community focused on children and committed to their individual good. Thank you for taking the time to look through our school website.
Our aim is to help children develop into mature, responsible young men and women who have a feeling of self-worth and importance. To do this it is essential that we work in partnership with parents and the wider community. The success of our school depends on good relationships between staff, children and parents.
Our website outlines what we stand for and what we can offer your child at Ballylifford Primary School. It provides you with information about our school and an insight into our policies and practices. Of course no website can convey the real atmosphere of a school and should you have any other questions or concerns please do not hesitate to visit the school and we would be delighted to show you and your child around.
Kind regards,
Mrs Fiona Conway
Life at Ballylifford PS
