Welcome to Brannoxtown
Community National School!
Welcome to Brannoxtown Community National School! We opened as a Community National School in September 2018 under patronage of the Kildare and Wicklow Education and Training Board (KWETB). Our school is located about 10 minutes drive from Naas and 5 minutes from Kilcullen. We are guided by four values (which children chose): Respect, Teamwork, Effort and Ambition. Brannoxtown CNS is a happy place where we support all children to grow in competence and confidence so they can flourish as learners and individuals. Our school is at the heart of the community and we value strong communications with parents and community members.
We are enrolling across all classes. If you’d like to inquire about enrolling your child(ren), email us at: brannoxtowncns@kwetb.ie. You can find out about our learning adventures here and by following us on Facebook and Twitter.
Graduation 2020!
This was a different kind of celebration… a whole-school assembly and virtual graduation to say goodbye for the summer and a huge well-done to our 6th class children! Our 6th class were busy! Check out the video below for snapshots of their time at Brannoxtown CNS!
