Principal's Address
Welcome to the Website of Presentation Secondary School, Wexford. We at Presentation Secondary School are delighted that you are taking the time to learn about the rich holistic education that is experienced by our students and which makes our school special.
The Presentation School Wexford is a Voluntary Catholic Secondary School for girls, operating under the CEIST Trusteeship.
The core values of CEIST are intended to support and nourish the lives of the people who are at the heart of our schools - students, staff and parents. These are the members of the school; their rights must be respected and their responsibilities should be performed in a manner which promotes the spiritual development of each person, achieves quality in teaching and learning, shows respect for every person, creates a sense of community and is founded on compassion and justice. Please go to the following link to see what all our schools under the CEIST Charter stand for: http://www.ceist.ie/
As such it supports the Religious and Educational Philosophy of its Founder, Nano Nagle. Religious Education takes a central place in the life and curriculum of the school.
At our school we pride ourselves on the strong relationships that exist between our enthusiastic students, supportive parents/guardians along with the professionalism and dedication of our staff to ensure a holistic education for all our students. We encourage our students to actively participate in all areas of school lifer to help them achieve their full potential. In doing so we strive to create a caring and supportive environment where all students are known, valued and respected.
We have a proud tradition of academic excellence, in addition students participate in a wide variety of extracurricular activities provided by a generous and committed staff who give up their time on a voluntary basis. I fully encourage your daughter to get involved, whether it be through sports, music, drama, creative writing or debating, it creates a holistic person.
As we enter the academic year 2016/2017, we keep in mind an important date that will occur in the history of our school. In October 2018, the school and indeed the town of Wexford and the wider community will celebrate 200 years of education that has been provided by the loyal members of the Presentation Order. As we know, the Presentation sister’s came to Wexford in a time of great hardship for the people of Ireland, it was through their work and dedication that we still continue to guide and teach the students of Wexford town. In October 2018 we will celebrate this milestone, and we look forward to welcoming Parents/Guardians, current pupils, past pupils, residents of the town and wider community to celebrate with us. Keeping our Bicentenary in mind our focus for the next few years is as follows:
Our Three Year focus
As Principal here in Presentation Secondary School, my door is always open to staff, parents and students and I’m looking forward to working with all members of our school community in a challenging and positive environment, always upholding the values on which we were founded. In 2000, Nano Nagle was voted Irish Woman of the Millennium in recognition of her importance as a pioneer of female education in Ireland, we hope that all our students strive to do their best in life.
To parents, students and all who visit our website we hope that it provides you with a positive impression of our school and we request that you contact us for any further information you may require.
