National
Schools |
| In Templeboy information about schools in the early part of the 18th Century is |
| understandably scarce. However, we are aware in 1834 a school was established |
| in Cashelboy by Fr. McDermott and was taken into the National System in 1845. |
| In 1877, a new school was erected beside the the Church of Templeterrace. This |
| building now known as St. Mary's Parish Hall was a primary school up to the time |
| the present St. Joseph's School was built in 1962. |
