Dear Students, Parents and Guardians and Visitors,
Welcome to Presentation College Headford —where learning comes to life and every student is inspired to thrive!
It is with great pride and excitement that I introduce you to our vibrant and inclusive school community. As principal, I am honored to lead a dedicated team of educators who are passionate about nurturing curiosity, building character, and empowering every learner to reach their full potential.
The story of Presentation College Headford began on Friday, August 26th 1942, in a disused army hut behind the presbytery. The founders of the new school were the Presentation Sisters, who had been involved in primary education in Headford since 1906. At first, the new secondary school catered for girls only.
In its opening year, there were seventeen students in first year and twenty in second year. By 1946, the demand for more space necessitated the use of the parochial hall and the convent dining room as classrooms.

The Presentation Sisters are women who have responded to the call to follow Christ in the spirit of our founder Venerable Nano Nagle. Inspired by her example, they are dedicated to reaching out to those on the margins by engaging in compassionate service.
They are a Roman Catholic, international religious Congregation. They participate in the mission of Jesus by working for the transformation of unjust systems, the integrity of creation and the flourishing of humanity and the earth.
Here in PCH we endeavour to carry on the Charism of our founding Presentation Sisters by striving for excellence in a caring, committed, just, Christian education community.
