Parent Association

Killinure NS has a very active and supportive Parents association since its inception in 2014. Since the very beginning we are lucky to have built a fantastic working relationship with the wider Community, as well as the Development Association in Boher, and can draw on their expertise and kindness if needed and vice versa.

The partents association is heavily involved in the 6th Class graduation, host fundraising events during the year, such as a Halloween disco, a Bag Pack on New Year’s Eve, a Table Quiz around Easter each year and we also have a Church Gate collection on the Bank Holiday weekend in June outside both Murroe and Boher Churches.  These events help the school reduce the cost of swimming lessons (1st to 6th Class) and also help to fund our own events throughout the year.   It’s not all about money though!  Each year we are lucky to have Santa and the Easter Bunny visit the school and we also host bi-annual events, which are, a Family Fun Walk/Run and a Cinema trip to the Odeon.  We also host tea/coffee events for the parents and children who make their First Holy Communion, for the 6th Class Graduation and also when you bring your children for their introduction to our school and their new teacher, we host tea/coffee here in the school hall so you get a chance to relax and meet each other properly.  If you have younger children don’t worry, bring them along, because there is an area of the hall set aside for them to play safely away from the hot liquids.
