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.
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.
In order to allow our students to support the Senior XV and Junior XV who reached the Connacht League Cup Final, the school carol service will now be held on Tuesday 12th December 2023 at 11.30am in Calry Church. Everyone is welcome to join us as we celebrate the joy of Christmas.
Congratulations to the Senior XV and Junior XV on reaching the Connacht League Cup Final and we wish them every success in their respective finals.
Sligo Grammar School is organising its annual Christmas Food Appeal in aid of Sligo Social Services. Donations can be brought to the foyer, where a space has been cleared. Donations can be brought in from the 29th of November to the 13th of December. All students are encouraged to bring what they can. Non perishable food items are ideal for the appeal. Sligo Social Services provides vital services for individuals, families and communities in the Sligo region, especially during the Christmas season when they may feel isolated.
Closing date for 1st Year Applications for 2024/2025 was 25th October 2023. Applications for other years available on request from the School.
Sligo Grammar School Open Day 2023 was on Wednesday 11th October. Next Open Day will be October 2024
Sligo Grammar School encourages all its students to get involved in extra-curricular activities. Taking up an activity after school helps you get to know people from all class groups as well as keeping you mentally and physically fit and healthy. We have a wide range of activities to choose from thanks to dedicated teachers and coaches, as well as a few parents and friends of Sligo Grammar School.
