History

The Dún Lughaidh girls' school was founded in 1950 by the Sisters of St. Louis, a religious community of nuns which was founded in post-revolutionary France in 1842. The school crest symbolises loyalty to the French crown.
The school and others originally established by the Sisters of St. Louis are now under the trusteeship of the Le Chéile Trust. Le Chéile formally came into being on 1 September 2009 and offers a network of support for all St. Louis schools and staff.
