Welcome back!

Welcome back to the 2025 – 2026 school year here in Killeshandra N.S.!

We are delighted to welcome six Junior Infant pupils and one new Senior Infant pupil this year – they have had a great few days and have settled in so well.

At our beginning of year Assembly this morning, we gave our new pupils a special welcome as they introduced themselves to the rest of the school. We spent some time talking about how we are encouraging a culture of kindness within the school. Mrs Richardson also reminded everyone about our Bí Cineálta policy, launched last year, which will help to ensure our school is a safe and happy place for everyone.

An exciting addition to our school this year is our Sensory Area. Everyone had the chance to explore and spend some time in the Sensory Area this week – we love the beanbag, tent, wobble board, wall crocodile, sequin frames, tactile tiles, weighted pets and fidget toys! This will be a great addition to our school, and we look forward to making good use of it over the coming year.

We are really looking forward to another fantastic year (there are lots of exciting things planned already!) as we grow and learn together in Killeshandra N.S.
