St. Columba’s is a Roman Catholic Primary School situated about a mile from the town centre on the A816 (Oban – Lochgilphead/Campbeltown) road at the southern fringe of the town. Its immediate environment is therefore predominantly rural. Together with Rockfield Primary, it forms part of the new Oban Primary Campus, completed in August 2007. The schools have separate teaching areas but share a gym hall, multi use/dining hall, administration office and playground. It is a modern two level building, designed to meet the needs of primary school pupils in the twenty first century. We aim to develop all pupils aesthetically, intellectually, morally, physically and spiritually to enable them to become successful learners, confident individuals, responsible citizens and effective contributors.
