Welcome
Kill o’ the Grange National School opened its doors in 1963 and is now in a beautiful new building since 2004. Our co-educational school is managed by a Board of Management, which is comprised of the Kill o' the Grange Parish Rector, the principal, parish nominees alongside both teacher and parent nominees. The objective of the School is to promote a happy, intimate and caring environment inclusive to all. A place of learning that teaches Christian values and instils strong values and self worth so our pupils are given the opportunity to meet their potential. It is a school that recognises every child as an individual.
Welcome back to all our children. We would also like to give a very warm welcome to our new Junior Infants class and the 3 new students joining us further up the school.
We are looking forward to a super year ahead.
House Points
September
Each of our students belong to a house. Each of our houses are named after a colour (as you can see from this table) and siblings are placed within the same House.
Throughout the academic year the students are awarded points based on merits achieved across the school, whether it is small gestures of kindness, sporting achievements or exceptional behaviour shown towards their peers they are guided monthly by goals set out by the student council.
These goals are identified as qualities each student must demonstrate during the month to be awarded points: Resilience, Optimism and Kindness, to name a few.
Alongside these traits and behaviours students can also win points by using the route to school options every Thursday. Follow here to see how your or your family members' house is doing!
