It has been a busy and enjoyable start to the new school year at Kilrickle N.S.! 🌟

Our boys and girls have been enjoying lots of Art 🎨, Science 🔬, Gaeilge 🇮🇪, group work 👥 and hands-on learning across the school.

We were delighted to welcome our new Junior Infants 🎒, while Morning Hurling 🏑 has also made a welcome return each morning!
