St. Brigid's GNS was established by the Holy Faith Sisters in 1928 to cater for the educational needs of the children of Killester parish and the surrounding area. The school supports the principles of
"inclusiveness, equality of access and participation in the school and respect for
diversity of values, beliefs, traditions, languages and ways of life in society"
We are committed to nurturing the Catholic faith through religious education, preparation for the sacraments and through the ethos of the school. The ethos is demonstrated through respect shown for each person in the school - pupils, members of staff, parents and visitors. We value our relationship with parents and the community and we are committed to working in partnership with all involved in the education process so as the best interests of each child are catered for.

Some of the classes have had very exciting creatures growing in their classrooms. Children in Senior Infants and First Class witnessed caterpillars developing their cocoons and then eventually they watched as the cocoons broke apart and beautiful butterflies emerged. It was very exciting for the girls to watch and they learned so much about the life-cycle of butterflies. They released their butterflies into the school garden.
