St. Raphaela’s Secondary School St. Raphaela’s Secondary School is located in the suburb of Stillorgan, approximately seven miles from Dublin City Centre. The city Centre is accessible by regular bus service and the Luas tram service. Dublin City has a host of historical, cultural, and entertainment venues. A taste of these are Trinity College, the G.P.O., St. Patrick’s Cathedral, and Christchurch Cathedral along with theatres, cinemas, and various shopping malls. Stillorgan has many facilities for the young and old. Airfield Trust is located very close to the school. It was opened in 1805 and is Dublin City’s only 38-acre working farm. It was established for educational and environmental purposes. The first shopping mall and the first bowling alley that were opened in Ireland are situated in Stillorgan. A large industrial estate has been established very close to the school, creating employment in the area. St. Raphaela’s Secondary School is situated on the grounds of the Handmaids of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, which remains as both founders and patrons of our school. St. Raphaela’s Primary and Secondary Schools are the only schools in Ireland under the Trusteeship of the Handmaids, but we have many sister schools in other countries such as Spain, France, England, and Japan. Our crest is an important symbol of our educational ethos. The Latin phrase “Ad Finem Fidelis” means “Faithful to the end,” a tenet we instill in our students.
