Parents Council

The Parents Council meets once a month to discuss various matters relating to the provision of services for their children at Gaelcholáiste Luimnigh.

Currently, Mr. Denis Herlihy is Chairperson of the Parents Council.  Monica Uhleman is Deputy Chairperson and Joy Corbett is the Treasurer.

An election is held at each AGM of the Council to elect new representatives to the Council for the ensuing academic year. We are very fortunate to have a very vibrant, committed, honest and hard-working Council of parents in our community. The Council affords parents and guardians with the opportunity to influence, in a very meaningful way, the effective operation of the school in the interests of pupils attending.

The Parents Council organise various social events during the year and also facilitate guest speakers on a range of topical issues of concern and interests to parents.

Information regarding the activities organised by the Parents Council can be found on the official Facebook page of the Council. Click Here.
