History

The school opened in September 1959 and got an extension in 1970. The school has been renamed to "Saint Mary's Co-Ed Primary School" because it now accepts boys and girls so it is no longer a Christian Brothers School. The school had its 50-year jubilee in 2009. The school is located beside Coláiste Mhuire, the oldest post-primary school in Mullingar.

Sports in school

The sports that are in the school are the following:-

  • Football Leagues (on the field located beside the school)
  • Swimming in the Mullingar Swimming Pool
  • Hurling (on the field located beside the school)
  • Sports Day (annually)
  • Gaelic football (on the field located beside the school)

    • Notable alumni
