WELCOME

May we extend to you a very warm welcome to the Preparatory Department of Sullivan Upper School. 

As a way of introduction to our Department, we would like to share some meaningful information with you.  In our school we believe in the concept of lifelong learning and the idea that both adults and children learn new things every day.  We maintain that learning should be a rewarding experience for everyone; it should be fun.  Through our teaching, we equip our children with the skills, knowledge and understanding necessary to be able to make informed choices about the important things in their lives.  We believe that appropriate teaching and learning experiences help children lead happy and rewarding lives.

Every school has goals in mind when they teach children and we at Sullivan are no different.  The beliefs we have underpin the development of our ethos throughout the school and we reflect upon them regularly to ensure that they address our pupils' needs.

The school motto "Lamh foisdineach an uachtar" is in the Irish language and means "with the gentle hand foremost", a constant reminder about the virtue of "gentleness" in dealing with others.

 Should you have any further queries, please contact the Head of Department,

Mrs E.A. Smith.
