St. Mura's was built in the 1930s to replace the old Parish School of 1856. It is a two teacher school with an enrolment of about 40 pupils, boys and girls, ages 4-12, representing the three major denominations in Ireland, i.e. Church of Ireland, Presbyterian and Roman Catholic. The school is under the patronage of the Church of Ireland Bishop of Derry & Raphoe, The Rt. Rev. Ken Good
