Cabra Community College has been selected to become a 'Creative School' by the Arts Council for 2019/20. We will work alongside a Creative Associate during the year to develop a Creative School Plan to promote the Arts in our school.
Creative Schools is a flagship initiative of the Creative Ireland Programme to enable the creative potential of every child. Creative Schools is led by the Arts Council in partnership with the Department of Education and Skills and the Department of Culture, Heritage and the Gaeltacht.
This initiative will understand, develop and celebrate the arts and creativity in our school. It will establish a range of collaborative opportunities for the school and will develop and strengthen the relationships between school and the broader cultural and community infrastructure within which we operate. The aim is for our school to be supported to fully embrace the arts and creativity, ensuring a positive experience and strong outcomes for children and young people.
