School History

1950s

Our school was established in the late 1950s.

It was originally to be known as May Road School.

1959

The school officially opened on 7 January 1959 as 'Glenealy Junior School', a name suggested by founding Principal Doreen Handyside.

The school quickly established itself as an important part of the community and gained a solid reputation.

1978-1979

Glenealy was subsequently handed over to ESF.

Following a government review in 1978, it was determined that English-language grant-aided schools were no longer viable. 1979 Glenealy was subsequently handed over to ESF.
