We believe that the key to success in learning is having teachers who are passionate, knowledgeable, and committed to helping their students achieve their full potential. Our teachers are dedicated professionals who inspire and motivate their students to be the best they can be.

Let’s take a look at some of the inspiring quotes from our teachers. 

Múinteoir Norah Harpur encourages students to embrace the Irish language, stating that “Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.” 

Meanwhile, Múinteoir Stephen Johnson highlights the importance of studying English literature, noting that “You discover that your longings are universal longings, that you’re not lonely and isolated from anyone. You belong.”

 

Our teachers are experts in their subjects and are passionate about sharing their knowledge with students. 

Múinteoir Clár Caomhánach believes that “Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination and life to everything,” while Múinteoir Danielle Dempsey views art as a way to find happiness, stating that “Art is something that makes you breathe with a different kind of happiness.”

Múinteoir Edel Céitinn sees mathematics as a way to develop problem-solving skills and understand the world around us. 

Múinteoir Daithí Mac Bionáid highlights the connection between Ireland and Spain, and encourages students to learn Spanish to deepen their cultural understanding. 

Meanwhile, Múinteoir Nick De Róiste believes that science is both useful and beautiful, stating that “Scientists do not study nature because it’s useful, they study it because they delight in it.”

Our teachers are committed to supporting their students both academically and personally. Múinteoir Gillian Harpur believes that “Education is the key to unlock the golden door of freedom,” while Múinteoir Daire Ó Súird sees physical education as a way to promote discipline and self-confidence.

We hope that these quotes give you a sense of the passion and dedication our teachers bring to their work every day. 

Our school is an inspiring place to learn, where students can explore their interests and develop the skills they need to succeed. We are proud to have such amazing teachers, and we hope that you will be inspired by their wisdom and enthusiasm.

Príomhoide & Ábhair Fraincis & Gaeilge

‘’Nuair a roghnaíonn tuismitheoirí a bpáistí a thógáil le Gaeilge, nó nuair a thugann siad an deis dóibh oideachas trí Ghaeilge a fháil, tá siad ag aistriú ó ghlúin go glúin modh smaointeoireachta agus cumarsáide Ghaelaí nach bhfuil ag aon tír eile sa domhain.

Education is the passport to the future, for tomorrow belongs to those who prepare for it today.’’

Cécile Breton-O’Connor

Ábhair Fraincis

”Tír gan teanga, tír gan anam. Ní féidir daoine, cultúr agus teanga a dhealú. Tugann an Fhraincis tuiscint dúinn ar na Francaigh agus a gcuid cultúir. Speaking another language teaches us to see with new eyes and opens new doors. La langue française appartient à tous ceux qui s’y intéressent.”

Edel Céitinn

Ábhair Mata, Gaeilge & Stadéir Riomhaireachta

“B’fhéidir nach múineann mata dúinn conas grá a shuimiú nó fuath a chealú ach tugann sé le tuiscint dúinn go bhfuil réiteach ag gach fadhb agus gur féidir réiteach a fháil trí sár-iarracht, cleachtadh agus tuiscint.
Mar a dúirt  William Thurston, “mathematics is not about numbers, equations, computations or algorithms; it’s about understanding.” 

Danielle Dempsey

Ábhair Ealaín Art

”Ealaín Art, also called (to distinguish it from other art forms) visual art, a visual object or experience consciously created through an expression of skill or imagination. The term art encompasses diverse media such as painting, sculpture, printmaking, drawing, decorative arts, photography, & installation.  Art is something that makes you breathe with a different kind of happiness. ”

Stephen Johnson 

Ábhair Stair & Béarla

“Stair: Ní hé atá sa stair scéal an ama atá imithe ach an iarracht a dhéanaimid na gnéithe den am atá imithe a bhfuil spéis againn iontu a chur le chéile arís agus a léirmhíniú. The beauty studying English literature, to quote F. Scott Fitzgerald (Is) ‘You discover that your longings are universal longings, that you’re not lonely and isolated from anyone. You belong.’’

Eoin Ó hÁodha

Ábhair Graific Theicniúil & Teicneolaiocht

“Ceann – Croí – Lámh!

In Graphics & Technology, we think with our head, create with our hands & put our heart into it. In Graphics, we learn to think visually & communicate visually in 2D & 3D. In Technology, we learn to design and make.”

Rose Brophy

Ábhair Fraincis

” Learning another language enables all of us to discover cultures, customs and an another way of thinking. It gives an insight in others cultures and countries where French is spoken “Pour ce qui est de l’avenir, il ne s’agit pas de le prévoir, mais de le rendre possible » Antoine de Saint Exupéry (« as for the future, your task is not to foresee it but to make it possible”) 

Daithí Mac Bionáid

Ábhair Spáinnís & Stair

”Tá an-nasc idir an Spáinn agus Irlanda. The Irish have a huge connection with Spain and we try to develop that love for all things Spanish in MSG. Our school offer an exchange programme with a school in the beautiful region of Teruel, and we help our students to communicate through the language at every opportunity. Viva el castellano.”
