St. Louis Secondary School is an all-girls Catholic secondary reformatory school in Dundalk, County Louth. It is situated beside the De La Salle College on the outskirts of Dundalk.

History

The Dún Lughaidh girls' school was founded by a religious order of nuns in Dundalk. The order was named after Louis XVI of France (which provided the school with its name) and its purpose was to educate the Irish people. The school crest symbolises loyalty to the French crown.

Uniform

The uniform consists of a bottle green v-neck jumper worn over a white open necked girls' blouse, with a calf-length green check skirt (green trousers are also an option) and a green rain-coat with a fleece lining bearing the schools crest. Shoes must be flat-soled and black.
