WELCOME

The Mount Kelly education stands apart in the values and attitudes of its young men and women. Compassion, tolerance, kindness, integrity, generosity of spirit and a commitment to service underpin a determined dedication to academic excellence.

Mount Kelleians are nurtured by a sensitive rigour in which they are expected to take the risk of being more than what they may think they are, to pick themselves up, and others too, when things do not go their way and in so doing to learn the true nature, joy and responsibility of success.

Our Prep Matron, Val, recently took on an incredible challenge in support of our school charity, Devon Mind. She walked barefoot across 20 feet of hot coals burning at 1200°F - an inspiring and courageous achievement! 🔥

So far she has raised an impressive £135, and we are hugely grateful for her efforts and dedication to such an important cause. 💙
