History
St. Wolstan's Priory was founded between 1202 and 1205 by Adam de Hereford and named after Saint Wolstan (also spelled Wulfstan; died 1095). The monastery was dissolved in 1536 and when the Holy Faith Sisters opened a girls' school on the site (located south of Castletown House) in 1955 they revived the name: St. Wolstan's Holy Faith Convent School. The school moved to its present site in Ballymakealy Upper in 1999.[2]
