It was a huge success and all classes really enjoyed it.

On February 14th the student council also organised a non-uniform day to raise money for Pieta house and as part of an initiative to renew our Amber Flag.

The school raised a massive €1398.65 for this worthy cause. Thank you so much to all students, parents and teachers for their generous donations.

We are constantly looking at our wellbeing in KPS and doing activities to create a positive and safe atmosphere for everyone. Our application for our Amber flag renewal was submitted in April and we are awaiting the results.

Student Council 2023 - 2024

The student council meets every two weeks to discuss any issues or concerns they may have.

It is an opportunity to give the students a voice for their school.

In September the students formulated a list of wants and needs and will be making requests to the Board of Management and In School Management team.
