Mission Statement

In St. Francis of Assisi Primary School Keady, we aim to educate our children in a safe, happy and stimulating school environment to enable them to fulfil their unique potential.

We aim to create opportunities for children to collaborate in the learning process, become lifelong learners, have mutual respect and contribute positively to their local and global societies for the good of all.

Christian values are placed at the centre of our daily life and underpin all the relationships we develop in a caring school community.

St Francis of Assisi Primary School is a Catholic School and values strong links between home, school and parish, and welcome all children and their families.

The Eco and School Council have introduced a 'UNIFORM EXCHANGE RAIL' to help reduce clothing waste. If you would like to donate gently-used or nearly new school uniform or you are in need of a uniform item you can find the exchange rail inside the P1/P2 exit door which will be open before and after school.
