Our School

St. Kilian’s German School in south Dublin welcomes boys and girls of all nationalities, cultures and religions. Children learn German from Kindergarten (Junior Infants) up to Leaving Certificate in a diverse and inclusive environment. Our approach to education combines the best of the Irish and German educational traditions: students are prepared for the Junior and Leaving Certificate as well as the German Sprachdiplom and Sek-I examinations. Knowledge of German is not a requirement to enrol at St. Kilian’s.

Ethos

St. Kilian’s German School is a co-educational, inter-denominational school spanning the full educational cycle from Kindergarten to Leaving Certificate. Our environment is nurturing, safe and caring. We respect and affirm the integrity of our students and we welcome those of all cultures, traditions and beliefs to share our community and educational experience. We value tolerance and difference, and we embrace democratic values. We live a European educational experience through the languages of German and English and through our shared Eurocampus.

Mission Statement

Guided by our ethos we support our students to become individuals of integrity, to be independent in thought, open-minded and confident.  We foster personal responsibility and promote active citizenship in Europe and the world.
