On October 20th, our Transition Year and 2nd Year Ethos Ambassadors attended their orientation at Head Office.

The session explored how students can bring our school’s core values—Respect, Excellence in Education, Care, Equality and Community—to life in the classroom, through clubs and across school life. 🤝

Students shared ideas for values-based activities and competitions, discussed inter-school meet-ups and began planning their Identity Boxes ahead of graduation.

We look forward to seeing their ideas take shape as they represent and promote our school’s ethos! 👏

Before the mid-term break, our 5th & 6th Year Construction Technology students visited a Microsoft data centre construction site, where they saw how the theory covered in class applies to a real construction project.

Students learned about site selection, site analysis and site safety, and had the opportunity to examine construction plans before heading out on a guided site walk.

Along the way, they saw foundations, mass concrete and structures already built on site, helping them connect their classroom learning with construction in practice.

A huge thank you to Microsoft for facilitating the visit, and to the teams at Dornan Construction and John Paul Construction for sharing their time and expertise. A fantastic learning experience for our students! 👏

Thank you also to Mr Gannon and Mr O’Callaghan for accompanying and supporting our students on the visit.

More Halloween highlights from St Kevin’s CC! 👻🎃

Here are some photos from the day! Staff and students got into the Halloween spirit with a brilliant mix of spooky, funny and creative costumes. 📸🧙‍♀️

Our 1st Year JCSP students also enjoyed their Halloween party, receiving certificates for the Halloween-themed projects they completed in class. Their hard work was then rewarded with games, a movie and treats—a lovely way to finish up before the mid-term break! 🍿🎬

Well done to everyone who dressed up and joined in the fun, and thank you to the staff who helped organise the celebrations! 🦇👏

Our Further Education teachers from Dublin College Fonthill, based here at St Kevin’s Community College, were delighted to showcase their wide range of courses at the AsIAm Employment Seminar and Careers Fair today, 22nd October 2026.

The event brought together autistic jobseekers, employers, support organisations, and education and training providers to highlight and address the barriers faced by autistic people in securing and sustaining meaningful employment.

It was a fantastic opportunity to promote the further education pathways available to learners and to support greater inclusion and accessibility in education and employment.
