Gaelscoil Osrai

Sa bhlian 1984 do tháinig scata tuismitheoirí le chéile i gcathair Chill Chainnigh agus é mar aidhm acu scoil lán-Ghaeilge a bhunú dá bpáistí.

Fuaireadar an cead ón Roinn san a dhéanamh, agus thugadar faoí seomraí a fháil ar cíos ón gClub CLG Sheámais Uí Stíofáin ar imeall na cathrach.

Sa lá atá inniu ann tá ceathrar n-oide is fiche agus breis is ceithre chéad caoga dalta sa Ghaelscoil.

Le himeacht ama tá an Ghaelscoil ag dul í láidreacht agus i méid agus tá ainm na scoile go h-árd i measc an phobail.

About the school

In 1984 a group of interested parents got together and set up the Irish language school now named Gaelscoil Osraí.

They received permission from the Department of Education to do so, and the school commenced its life in a room rented from James Stephen’s GAA Club on the outskirts of Kilkenny City.

With the passing of time the school has grown in size and popularity. There are now 24 teachers and almost 450 pupils in the school.
