Welcome to Scoil na bhForbacha

Scoil na bhForbacha is situated on the shores of Galway Bay overlooking the coast of County Clare and behind us the wonderful backdrop of the Connemara Mountains that stretch north to Lough Corrib. The historic City of Galway is within 8 km. This awe inspiring location is inspiration for much of out artistic, linguistic and creative endeavours. We hope that you enjoy your visit.
