Welcome to Sligo Grammar School

Welcome to Sligo Grammar School’s website. The keystones to the school’s success include respect, trust, co-operation, participation, consultation, collaboration and teamwork. Our enthusiastic and dedicated staff place great emphasis on the holistic approach. Such efforts are channeled so that our pupils develop characteristics of being good, reliable citizens, fit to take their place in society. Together with a fine tradition of sport and community involvement, the school offers a wide range of activities to ensure the personal and social development of the whole child.

 

Our Mission Statement

One Body, One Spirit

Sligo Grammar School aims to promote excellence in an inclusive and supportive community that reflects Christian values, where each member is enabled to achieve his/her full potential in life and in learning.

BATTERY COLLECTION DRIVE

Sligo Grammar School is taking part in the WEEE Battery Recycling competition. The competition returns after an enforced pause due to Covid-19. Students, teachers, parents and friends are asked to bring in all their used batteries for recycling. If we collect at least 10 boxes of used batteries we are in the running to win vouchers for sports equipment. The real benefit of the project, though,  is the reclamation of the valuable resources that go into battery production, helping to create a more sustainable future. For every battery recycled a donation goes to the charity Laura Lynn, another great reason to help the school in their battery collection drive. Just drop in your old batteries in to the school foyer. The deadline for the collection is 31st March, so you have two weeks left to contribute. Thanks to our Green Schools Committee and teacher Ms Moore for all their great work.
