Saint Patrick's High School, Keady, Co Armagh

BETTER TOGETHER

 

Welcome

It is with great pride and pleasure that I warmly welcome you, and your family, to St Patrick’s High School. Students in St Patrick’s are happy and cared for, we have high expectations and instil an aspirational mindset.

We are an all-ability, co-educational Catholic school where every child is recognised and celebrated as an individual. Our child-centred focus ensures that each and every child is guided and supported to shine both inside and outside the classroom.

St Patrick’s is a vibrant learning environment, and this inclusive, caring community ensures success for all in every aspect of school life.

At St Patrick’s High School, we are committed to providing a holistic education that nurtures the mind, body, and spirit. Our dedicated staff work tirelessly to create a supportive and stimulating environment where academic excellence is achieved alongside personal growth and spiritual development. We believe that every child has unique gifts and talents, and it is our mission to help them discover and develop these to the fullest.

Our Catholic ethos and faith are at the core of everything we do. It guides our values and shapes our actions, fostering a sense of respect, compassion, and service to others. Our motto “Respect for yourself and Consideration for others” drives us in all we do.

We offer a broad and balanced curriculum that caters to the needs of all our students, ensuring they are well prepared for whichever future pathway they choose to follow. It is our hope that every child will succeed and follow a path that brings happiness, satisfaction, and where they can contribute effectively to society.

Our extracurricular activities provide rich opportunities for students to explore their interests and develop new skills, from sports and arts to community service and leadership.

We are proud of our strong partnership with parents, parishes, partner primary schools, and the wider community. Together, we work to create a nurturing environment where students can thrive academically, socially, and spiritually.

Thank you for considering our school for your child's education. We look forward to welcoming you into our community and embarking on this exciting journey together.

Mrs K. McKenna
Principal

SPK Connect See it Believe it Be it We were delighted to welcome pupils from our Partner Primary Schools this morning as part of our Fair Start initiative. During their visit, pupils enjoyed participating in an interactive game led by Mrs McKenna before attending an insightful presentation delivered by Mr Woods and Mr Lappin from Linwoods. The speakers shared valuable information about their business and highlighted the wide range of career opportunities available within this successful local company. The event provided pupils with an excellent opportunity to learn about the world of work and gain an understanding of the diverse career pathways that exist within local industry. We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Mr Woods and Mr Lappin for taking the time to speak with our pupils, and to all of our visiting pupils for their enthusiasm, engagement, and active participation throughout the morning. A special thank you to our year 13 pupils who volunteered to help this morning.

Today our Year 9 girls took part in an enjoyable camogie blitz. They played games against St Joseph’s Crossmaglen and St Patrick’s Academy, Dungannon. It was great to see such great skill on show and the future is bright for our girls. A special thanks to Ryan for organising and for Mrs Murray-Doyle for officiating.
