Welcome to Coláiste Mhuire Askeaton

Welcome to the website of Coláiste Mhuire, Askeaton, Co. Limerick. I hope you enjoy browsing through all the information, news and pictures from our very busy school.

Coláiste Mhuire is tremendously proud of its history, tradition and achievements. Coláiste Mhuire continues a tradition of excellence in the provision of second level education in this area. In 1940 Mrs. Polly O’Mahony and Miss Nora Duggan (later Mrs. Hawkes) established St. Mary’s Secondary School, a lay co-educational secondary school. In doing so they were continuing a tradition of education in Askeaton that stretched back over two hundred years. In 1994, as part of an amalgamation process with the Vocational School in Shanagolden and Mount Trenchard Secondary School which was closing at the time, St. Mary’s Secondary School came under the patronage of County Limerick VEC and Coláiste Mhuire was established. In 2013, County Limerick VEC amalgamated with the VECs in Limerick City & Clare leading to the establishment of Limerick & Clare Education & Training Board.
