Tucked in under the trees of Rathgar, Stratford College is a secondary school built around three words – and a promise that every student is known

Stratford is celebrating Maths Week 2026 (12th - 18th October) with daily activities around the school, at breaktimes and in Maths classes! The tutor-time daily quiz is proving to be extremely competitive as each form group tries to solve it and then run to find Ms Matthews in order to win the box of chocolates!

The TYs, with Ms Talbot, Ms McGill and Mr Morgan, met extremely early on Monday morning 5th October to take the bus to Delphi for a 3-day trip. The weather proved to be good to everyone!

On Monday 5th October, the 2nd Years and a number of 6th year students took the train at 7am to go to Coláiste Uisce in Co. Mayo for a three-day trip. A huge thanks to Ms Deegan, Ms Coffey and Ms Maxwell for organising such an amazing trip. Lots of Irish, surfing and fun! 2nd Year student, Saoirse, describes the trip as Gaeilge!

On Friday 2nd October, the Jewish students invited staff to have a quick, light breakfast in the Sukkah which was set up outside the National School front door area.

Our Transition Year (TY) students hosted a successful coffee morning in the school hall to raise funds for Our Lady's Hospice & Care Services in Harold's Cross. Year groups visited the hall in turn for tea, coffee, and treats. 

Some of our Chinese students celebrated the Mooncake Festival this morning with traditional treats, and stories about the holiday.  The round shape of the mooncakes mirrors the bright harvest moon, symbolizing family togetherness and completeness.
