Scoil Aonghusa Senior opened in 1975 at a time when the Tallaght area was undergoing rapid development. The school is located adjacent to Tymon Park. Tymon Park is the premier regional park within the South Dublin County Council area. The park covers 500 acres with abundance of flora and fauna and recreational facilities. Classes in the school regularly visit Tymon park for nature walks and other outdoor activities. More information about Tallaght can be found at http://www.tallaght4kids.ie/index.html.
