Community note

Around Aughavas

Aughavas has GAA, community-centre and school notices running together. Aughavas Community Centre describes itself as a place for centre and local-community updates, and recently shared St Joseph's Sports Day 2026, including a tractor run as part of the Agri Kids work. The centre also lists Irish, music, dance and meeting rooms for the local ICA, and centre notices carry a Christmas Market with stalls and a free parish/surrounding-area afternoon, plus a mental health and wellness evening in the hall. The centre is also a county support centre with phone charging, hot water, kitchen facilities, toilets and seating for 120, while a separate profile describes it as a volunteer-run rural community centre that fundraises for its own operation. St Joseph's NS is a Catholic primary school with two classroom teachers, two SET posts, two SNAs, a school secretary, an active Parents' Association and a 10th Green Schools Flag in 2024 for global citizenship, food and biodiversity. St Joseph's NS began as Aughavas Community Calling and still shares parish life as well as school news; recent school material includes morning club / after-school notice, Sports Day, the tractor run, an Aughavas GAA Junior A champions cup visit, a Junior Room nature walk and school-garden tidy-up, and an RSA Seatbelt Sheriff road-safety visit. Aughavas GAA gives the club rhythm: the notice describes a very active South Leitrim club, carries ClubSpot notes, a reserve-team win over Bornacoola by 0-15 to 0-13, an U15 St Joseph's championship item against Mohill in Eslin, official fixtures around Bornacoola, Gortletteragh, St Mary's Kiltoghert and Mohill, and a EUR1,500 support cheque to St Joseph's NS and Afterschool. The Irish Men's Sheds Association also lists Aughavas Men's Shed. McCaffreys, CK Steelworks, music, dance, ICA, centre stalls and parish memory sit around that school-centre-GAA board.
