Saplings is a Special School of Children with Autism in Kill Co.Kildare which provides an unique evidence based approach to education for each child who attends. We believe that from “little acorns great oak trees grow”

Established originally through the energy and commitment of a small group of parents and professionals in the Kildare area in the year 2000, Saplings School in Kill was the 1st of the Saplings schools to be set up. The Saplings group of schools has since grown to a family of 5 schools, which has provided educational services to over 80 pupils in Kildare, Dublin, Kilkenny, Westmeath and Carlow. Our mission is to support childen with a diagnosis of autism and their families, assisting them to achieve their full potential and participate in their family and community life, through a holistic, evidence based, educational model which celebrates each childs diginity, uniqueness and right to an optimal education.

We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to the wonderful team from AIB who recently spent time with us here at our school.

✨ A Huge Thank You to MJOS Group ✨
We would like to extend our sincere thanks to Mick O’Shea and the MJOS Group for their incredible work refurbishing the bathrooms at Saplings Special School during the Easter holidays.
The transformation has made a real difference to our school community — creating a brighter, more modern, safer and accessible space for our pupils to use.
The team from MJOS did a fantastic job removing unused and unwanted pipework, installing safer and more efficient pipework and sanitary ware. They also removed the old flooring and replaced it with new, easy to maintain flooring. New partitions were installed to ensure that doors, locks, etc were up to current standards.
Thank you to everyone involved for your professionalism, care, and generosity. Support like this truly has a lasting impact, and we are extremely grateful. 💙
A special thank you also to Kill Action Group for their support in making these improvements happen in our school!

🎁 A Huge Thank You to Our Wonderful Supporters at Naas Point 🎁

We would like to sincerely thank Maud from Naas Point who generously donated some amazing toys to our school. Your kindness and thoughtfulness mean so much to us.
The toys were very appropriate for our children, and it was a joy to see how much fun they had playing with them. There were lots of smiles, laughter, and excitement as the children explored and enjoyed their new games and toys.
Your support has truly made a difference and brought so much happiness to our school community. Thank you for thinking of our children and for helping to create such special moments for them.
