Ursuline College is an all-girls Catholic voluntary Secondary School in Sligo . It is under the trusteeship of the Le Cheile Schools Trust.
History[]
The school traces its origins to 1850 when members of the order of Ursulines came to Sligo. The following year they established ‘’Nazareth’’, a free primary school. From this grew St. Joseph's National School and St. Vincent's Secondary School which became the Ursuline Convent.[2]
