We are very fortunate at Annagh N.S. to have a very well equipped school. Within the building there are four classrooms, a learning support/resource room, a General Purpose Room and an Office. Outside we have an Astroturf pitch and a Basketball court. There are games imprinted on the tarmac in the other two areas for our pupils.

Annagh N.S. is a multimedia learning environment annd a  is extremely well equipped in the area of Information Technology. Each of the four classrooms are equipped with Interactive Whiteboards, laptop computers and numerous education computer programmes. We have a bank of laptops all networked to our classroom computers for pupils school use. We hope that every pupil completes their primary education here at Annagh NS with a competent degree of computer literacy.

Each classroom has a library where there is an abundance of reading books for the children. The books are graded so children are reading a level that is appropriate for them. There are story books, science books, history books, geography books and novels in every classroom, a mixture of fiction and non-fiction books. Annagh N.S. uses the ‘Junior Librarian’ system whereby all books are catalogued on our networked computer system. This allows children to take home and return library books using the ‘Junior Librarian’ scanning system.

Every child has access to science equipment, musical instruments, art & craft materials and many more educational resources that enhance learning and education. Every effort is made to provide whatever is needed to develop the school lives of the children and give them every opportunity to reach their full potential.

Annagh N.S. has a G.P. room into which we build our stage for school concerts etc. The children perform a Christmas Concert bi annually. Our community really looks forward to our Christmas concert which takes place in December. We also prepare for the Féile na hInse competitions each Spring.

Children are taught the art of cooking at various festive occasions during the school year, e.g. Halloween, Christmas, Easter, and Pancake Tuesday.
