Cloughleigh, officially Cloghleagh (),〔(Placenames Database of Ireland )〕 is a townland and residential area of Ennis, County Clare, Ireland. It is mostly made up of bungalows, semi-detached houses and terraced houses. There is a community centre, playing fields and a playground in the estate, as well as a national school, which is financed directly by the State, but administered jointly by the State, a patron body, and local representatives. Nearby estates include Hermitage and Waterpark View. Cloughleigh falls within Ennis parish, and benefits from the local Church of Christ the King. Opened in 1978, it is one of the smallest churches in the parish. The current minister is Father Tom O'Gorman.〔(Ennis Parish - Church of Christ the King )〕 The community centre now houses Cloughleigh Youth Club, which meets on Thursday evenings. The club was founded in 1986 and originally met in a prefab for a number of years before moving to the community centre. The club promotes a 'contract' that everyone is respected regardless of race, colour or creed. Activities on offer include football, hockey and dodgeball, arts and crafts, dancing, debates and quizzes. Over the years, the club has reached national finals in debating, freestyle, hip hop and quiz competitions. Members also participate in overseas exchanges, and staffing of a summer camp for twenty-five children between the ages of seven and ten.〔(Cloughleigh Youth Club - teenspace ireland )〕 The RAPID Project in Cloughleigh, part of the Irish Government's drive for regeneration of deprived areas,〔(Eur28k For Cloughleigh School Library )〕 was named one of the principal winners in Co-operation Ireland's annual Pride of Place Competition 2007.〔(National Pride Of Place Award For RAPID Project In Cloughleigh )〕 Most primary school students attend Cloughleigh National School, which is located on the estate.
