About Our School
In September 2009, Réalt na Mara Junior School and Réalt na Mara Senior School amalgamated to become Réalt na Mara National School. Réalt na Mara School is a co-educational, vertical primary school.
Centre for Autism
Reált na Mara's initial class for children with autism was founded in 1999. Over the years our school has expanded to include four Autism Classes and an Early Intervention Class. We follow an adapted curriculum, make First Communion and Confirmation with our peers and join them for Art, P.E. and Music.
