History

History of Our School

Founded by parents living in the Lisburn Road area in 1993 the school was originally situated in Adelaide Park. In 2001 we moved to a new purpose built school in a green field site in Finaghy. The school has a wide catchment area from Sandy Row, Lisburn Road, Finaghy, Andersonstown and Taughmonagh and beyond. In Spring 2003 we will open a pre-school facility. Our school is child-centred with each child being encouraged to recognise their worth and importance as an individual. Every attempt is made to provide a low pupil to teacher ratio, ensuring that each child receives the maximum amount possible of quality teaching time. Highly committed and dedicated staff work closely with pupils, helping each one to develop to the very best of their ability, not only academically but also personally.

Founded in 1993, Cranmore Integrated primary School moved to a new purpose built school in Finaghy in 2001. The school has a wide catchment area from Sandy Row, Lisburn Road, Finaghy, Andersonstown, Taughmonagh and beyond.

We deliver the full range of subjects within the curriculum as well as offering out of hours activities such as fencing, soccer, cookery, hockey and judo. We participate in and promote the educational theme of Education for Mutual Understanding. Pupils are given opportunities to develop life skills of negotiation and mediation to resolve their conflicts in non-violent ways. Catholic children are prepared for the sacraments and at all times parents’ wishes are taken into consideration. Local clergy are invited and welcomed into all integrated schools. We also discuss cultural diversity through schoolwork, displays and assemblies.
