Our school has continued to develop our digital infrastructure and skills since every year since then.


Discover Primary Science


Discover Primary Science is a flagship project run by the Discover Science & Engineering (DSE) awareness programme. The programme aims to develop creativity in our children, show them how important science is to our everyday lives and more importantly how much fun it can be!
DSE's overall objectives are to increase the numbers of students studying the physical sciences, to promote a positive attitude to careers in science, engineering and technology and to foster a greater understanding of science and its value to Irish society.
Every year we at Rathlee NS
participate in this programme.
We have received an Award of Science Excellence which shows that we are a school that goes beyond the basic participation and carry out additional explorative activities.

We have just received our Discover Science and Maths Award 2021 from the Science Foundation of Ireland. This is a testament to the great work our pupils have been undertaking in the areas of Maths and Science. We are thrilled to receive the award and will continue to enhance our knowledge and awareness of Science and Maths in our immediate environment. Please view our many Discover Science projects presented on our website.
