About Us...

The School was established in 1947 by the Society of the Holy Child Jesus, an educational congregation founded a century earlier by Cornelia Connelly.

Holy Child School, Killiney is situated close to the sea and commands extensive views of the Dublin and Wicklow mountains and Killiney Bay.   

 

The School Crest
Killiney derives its name from the Gaelic
Cill Iníon Léinín
the church of the Daughters of Léinín.
The ruins of the earliest church have long since disappeared but the remains of an 11th century church still stand and are the inspiration for the school crest.
The school motto is
"Actions not Words"

HOLY CHILD, KILLINEY
