Headmaster's Message

Mr. Simon Thompson
The choice of secondary school for our children is one of the most important decisions we make in life. The nurture, protection and stimulation of our children to develop their full potential and emerge as young adults ready to take on life’s challenges are your concern and ours.

Kilkenny College which serves as the Diocesan College of the Cashel, Ferns and Ossory Diocese, has a well established reputation for the exceptionally wide range of subjects available.

We believe in the broad development of the whole person and strongly encourage involvement in the many sporting activities, clubs, cultural pursuits, equestrian and musical activities to be found here. We provide a caring, well ordered environment in which each pupil can find success in personal development, new skills and academic excellence.
