Thank you for taking the time to visit our website. I hope it gives you a genuine sense of what makes our school such a special place.
St. Laurence O’Toole’s is a small, rural Catholic school at the heart of the Belleeks community in South Armagh. We are proud of our inclusive ethos and our strong sense of belonging. Every child who walks through our doors is known, valued and supported.
Our vision is simple: An inclusive school where every child is encouraged and supported to grow, achieve, and succeed. This runs through everything we do. From warm welcomes at the gate to high expectations in the classroom, we are committed to giving our pupils the very best start—academically, socially, and emotionally.
We believe education should open doors and build character. That’s why we focus not only on strong learning but also on respect, fairness, ambition, and achievement—underpinned by kindness and care. Our children are encouraged to aim high, think deeply, and treat others well.
This website offers a glimpse into school life at St. Laurence O’Toole’s. Whether you're a current parent, a prospective family, or a member of the wider community, I hope it helps you feel part of what we’re building here: a place where children thrive, friendships grow, and futures begin.
