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

Folgaria Day 5 ⛷️
🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨 Today our teachers entered the jungle for “I’m a Teacher…Get Me Out of Here!” 🐍🌴 The challenge? An eating trial. The stakes? Our dignity. The reward? Raising vital funds for School Aid Romania 🇷🇴📚 Let’s just say there were some very questionable food choices, some heroic faces of determination… and a few moments where teachers seriously reconsidered their career paths. 🤢😂 But thanks to the incredible generosity of everyone who donated, cheered, and came along to support, this has become our most successful fundraiser yet! 🎉 So thank you for supporting a brilliant cause… and for enjoying the rare sight of teachers being the ones tested instead of the students ( bar Cayden who took the hit for the team iykyk!😉) Please enjoy the photos of teachers bravely sacrificing their taste buds for charity. ⭐ Worth it for the children. 🤢 Not sure it was worth it for the menu. **Don’t worry, more pics to come 🤫 #TeacherGetMeOutOfHere #ImACelebTeacherEdition #FundraiserFun #SchoolAidRomania

SPK Connect See it Believe it Be it We were delighted to attend a presentation this morning delivered by In2MedSchool. During the session, pupils received valuable information about the entry requirements for medical school, the interview process, and the wide range of opportunities available within healthcare careers. It was an extremely insightful presentation that gave pupils a greater understanding of the pathways into medicine and related fields
