The National Schools and school-house, standing near the Church, were erected in 1850. The schools, enlarged in 1885, are now large and commodious, and, fully adequate for the requirements of the parish. There is a very superior parochial library, which is kept here, containing about 1,800 volumes, which has been recently re-catalogued and re-arranged, and is open in the class room on Wednesday mornings, and books are changed from 12.15 to 12.45, noon.
