Place & story

From prefabs to a larger school

Scoil Niocláis at Frankfield was established in 2000 to serve the growing Frankfield–Grange community. Its own history records thirty-two junior infants arriving on 18 September that year, divided between two classes in prefabricated rooms behind the Church of the Incarnation. The school moved into its sixteen-classroom main building in October 2004. Further temporary accommodation followed as enrolment grew, before another extension opened in late August 2014. [2]
