Welcome Message from Principal, Tom Clarke

Principal ImageFáilte agus beannacht Dé oraibh go léir. Fearaimid fíorchaoin fáilte roimh gach scoláire chuig Meánscoil na mBráithre Chriostaí, Cill Chainnigh.

You are very welcome to the website of CBS Secondary School Kilkenny. Whether you are a parent, a former or present student, staff member or friend, we invite you to browse our site. We hope that it will provide you with a flavour of the breadth of opportunities which are on offer in our school.

CBS Kilkenny was founded by the Christian Brothers in 1859 and is one of a wide network of Christian Brothers Schools which were transferred to the Edmund Rice Schools Trust at the beginning of the new millennium. A detailed history and further information on our school can be found throughout the website, which we trust you will find interesting and informative.

CBS Secondary School Kilkenny has a long and proud tradition of academic excellence and sporting achievement. It is our privilege to be able to share with you what it is that has made it a unique place of learning for more than 160 years.


Tom Clarke (Principal)
