Our Lady of Lourdes Roman Catholic Primary School (commonly abbreviated to OLOL) is a primary school in The Limes Avenue, near Bowes Road, in Arnos Grove in the London Borough of Enfield. The school opened in 1971. [1] An ICT suite was built at the school in 2001, and the school won achievement awards from the DfES in 2001, 2002 and 2003. The school has recently had a rapid increase in the number of after school clubs offered, although it remains a single form entry school. It is also, strangely but incorrectly, well known in most of Enfield for having no corridors.
