Principal's Welcome
Scoil Bhailenóra is a Catholic co-educational primary school situated in the beautiful townland of Ballinora, close to the western suburbs of Cork City.
Our school has served the wider community of Ballinora/Waterfall for over 170 years. Children and staff come to school to learn, explore, create, grow and build. We treat each other with respect and celebrate the efforts each individual makes.
Working with families and local community organisations, we strive to provide a joyous and productive learning environment for all our 296 pupils.
Please explore our website, which aims to give you a taste of life in our school. Bain taitneamh as!
Le meas,
Mr. Luke Foley
