School holidays

Break time
The first break of the day begins at 10.25 am and ends at 10.50 am. After eating their snacks, pupils go to their designated area of the playground: The basketball pitch for classes 1-2 and the astro turf for classes 3-6. We have a beautiful activity playground for our children’s use and Primary School classes are allocated a day of the week on which they may play in it. For those pupils staying in school after 12.50 pm, there is a second break until 1.30 pm. Pupils go to the classroom designated as the picnic room or to the canteen to eat their lunch. After eating, pupils can play outside. 5th and 6th classes may eat in their classrooms. All areas are supervised by Primary School teachers.
Food / Canteen
St. Kilian’s school has a canteen, which offers a wide range of varied, healthy foods which are cooked on the premises. However, as this is mainly used by Secondary School pupils, it is recommended that Primary School pupils bring their own packed lunches and snacks from home. Older Primary School pupils may use the canteen. We would like to encourage parents to adhere to our Healthy Eating Policy and refrain from packing sweets and treats in the children’s lunch boxes. School milk is available to order using the form below.
