Get Involved

Support the school community with time, expertise, resources, or advocacy.

Presentation Primary School, Terenure welcomes families, alumni, neighbours, and organisations who want to strengthen pupil learning, wellbeing, enrichment, and home-school partnership throughout the year.

The strongest school communities are built when support around children is visible, organised, and shared.

Opportunities are designed to be flexible, practical, and manageable for busy families and local supporters.

Ways To Help

There are several practical routes into school involvement.

Some supporters give time in person, others contribute professional expertise, event help, sponsorship, or one-off resources. The school coordinates each role around safeguarding, supervision, and pupil need.
