History

Carramore National School was built in Casey's land in 1853 and it stayed open until 1913. We can still see the ruin of this old school. Our new school, St. John's N.S. was built in 1913 in Carramore and it was the parish priest who organised this.In 1923 our school was enlarged. A new classroom at the front of the school was built and this classroom is still being used today.We have a list of all the teachers that have taught at Carramore N.S.
