A new youth centre has just been completed behind the church and can be accessed by the Herbert Road. This centre was built for all young people of Bray and surrounding areas and it opened in August 2008.

The parish has a very close relationship with Saint Cronan's Boys' National School amongst other local primary and secondary schools. The parish provides the sacraments of Communion and Confirmation to the children of the local schools. They also help to raise funds for their twin parish of Ikanga[1] in Kenya.

Little Flower Hall

The Little Flower Hall is the parish hall of the Church. It was the home of Bray Male School between the years of 1880–1931.
