In Holy Child Killiney our Development Plan is looking to the future: the future of our students and the future of our school.
Achieved already - Phase One : The Sports Hall
We have built a new Sports Hall to give more access to a wider choice of sports. We want all our students to love and practice sport, offering them lifelong mental and physical health benefits. The Sports Hall was delivered in 2015 at a cost of €1.9m. Fundraising began in 2013 and we have raised a total of €1.54m. The balance of this loan will be rolled over into Phase Two financing.
Currently underway – Phase Two: New Classrooms
We are developing new STEM Laboratories, a new Art Room and a new Home Economics Suite. We want our students to enjoy learning in a modern environment, providing them with the space, resources and confidence to thrive. The total estimated cost is €2.6m however this is subject to change with finalised plans.
Finally – Student experience
We want our students to enjoy daily life in school. We will be developing more social areas for students to mix, a new library, a new canteen, offering disabled access and providing a new entrance to the school which will be reflective of our reputation.
Other achievements in our Strategic Plan include; joining Le Chéile Trust strengthening our position in the future, focussing on IT so that all years from 1 – 3 use iPads in the classroom. We offer a full time Career Guidance service and learning support on a wide range of subjects..
