I can never remember which is spelt with a y and which with an i. Hope this is the right way round! The schools opened in May 1874, before the Church. Enlarged at a cost of £2,200 in 1900. A site for a new building was acquired some 15 years later. However, new schools were not opened until 1971 although the old school buildings had been condemned since before the Second World War! Headteacher during the 1940s and 1950s was Joe COGHLAN; the school was particularly famous for its football teams. See The Scottie Press for details! Amalgamated with St Anthony's in 1991 to form Mother Teresa Primary School, which in turn amalgamated with St Gerard's and Our Lady of Reconciliation in 2004 to become The Trinity Primary School

This was my father’s first teaching post, after the war. The current primary school in Pitt Street was opened in September 1955. One of the streets in the area is still called Chaloner St.
