Kilcornan NS is a small school in the heart of county Limerick on the doorstep of Curragh Chase Forest Park. The school's warm welcome and inclusive ethos has meant that there has been a threefold increase in pupil numbers in the last 23 years which has meant that the school has outgrown it's buildings.
The Dept. for Education and Skills has granted funding for two new ensuite classrooms, two Special Education Teacher (SET) rooms and a wheelchair accessible toilet. In addition a new reception/circulation area, a principal’s office, and a secretary’s office will also be built. However, the grant does not cover these vital elements and the school community and parish must raise the funds themselves.
Last year the school community worked really hard to raise over €30K towards the fund (having raised €70K in total) but there is still more to go.
Please sponsor the brave parents and teachers who will be abseiling 125ft down the side of Thomond Park to support this worthy cause.
