About our School

Welcome to St Mary’s Boys’ National School, Ferrybank, Waterford. We are an all boys school based in Ferrybank on the north bank of the River Suir in Waterford city.

Our classes go from Junior Infants to 6th Class. The school has an administrative principal, 8 class teachers and 5 Special Education Teachers. St. Mary’s BNS is a Catholic school but the enrolment policy of the school allows for children of other faiths and none to enrol.

The work of the school is conducted in an atmosphere of tolerance and respect for religious differences.

The Board of Management of St Mary’s BNS is supported by the Parents’ Association.
