Place & story

From the 1959 building to new classrooms

Scoil Phádraig Naofa’s building at Lisboduff dates from 1959. It was extended and refurbished in 2005. Inspectors visiting in November 2006 recorded three classrooms, a small general-purpose room and a combined staffroom and office. The grounds had also been improved with hard-surfaced play areas and grass space. The report credited the board and parents with supporting the building project, including fundraising through the parents’ association and its links with local organisations. [2]
