At Bunscoill Rhumsaa, we believe children learn better when they are encouraged to use their imagination and apply learning to engaging contexts. That's why we provide learning challenges which require children to solve problems, apply themselves creatively and express their knowledge and understanding effectively throughout the curriculum.
Our imaginative topics provide an engaging environment for children to develop new skills, increase their knowledge and become independent learners, while our 'essential skills' framework ensures that children's progress is carefully monitored so each pupil is able to focus on their individual learning requirements.
On our website, you'll be able to keep up to date with our adventures in learning - we hope you enjoy it as much as we do!

Here at Bunscoill Rhumsaa we've been doing the Daily Mile for a few years now - but just what is it? The Daily Mile is a social physical activity, with children running or jogging – at their own pace – in the fresh air with friends. Children can occasionally walk to catch their breath, if necessary…
One of our favourite books! 'Holes' by Louis Sachar is an amazing story of fate and coincidence, packed with fantastic characters and 'wow!' moments! It also formed a brilliant mini-topic for our Year Six pupils to engage with, and they produced some terrific work, some of which you can see in this…
This display of beautiful art by children in our Reception classes cheers us up every time we walk past it - so we thought we'd share it!
