The School On The Hill

Noice!

he SEK Dublin International School up on Windgates Hill have just announced their Open Day for autumn 2024.

Happening on Saturday, October 26th, it will give people a chance to find out more about this local day and boarding school.

And gawk at the spectacular view of Greystones.

Having arrived into Belvedere Hall up on Windgates Hill on April 27th, 1983, SEK Dublin International has now upped its game considerably, offering an alternative to the Junior and Leaving certificate with their International Baccalaureate programmes, becoming a truly globe-trotting school in the process, with students from from around the world – including, of course, little ole Ireland…

The open day is a chance to meet the team, as well as take a snoop around the campus and find out about the school’s wide-ranging curriculum – along with plenty in the extra- category.

“We have long history of educational innovation, as part of the wider SEK group,” says SEK’s Martina Diegmann, “with schools in mainland Europe and the Middle East, including a tall ship in the Mediterranean, which acts as a base to study sailing and marine conservation, as well as our own university.

“As a fully independent school we have the freedom to offer an alternative to the traditional state exams. We were the first school in Ireland to offer the prestigious International Baccalaureate Middle Years (MYP) and Diploma (DP) programmes.”

So, come along and find out more about the International Baccalaureate and extra-curricular programmes for secondary students aged 12 to 18.

The Windgates Hill school is also now enrolling for day and boarding school students for September 2024 – email below. This means, as always, new hosting families will be needed.

Running from 10am to 2pm on Saturday, October 26th, you can RSVP on email here or phone here, and find out more about SEK Dublin International’s Greystones school right here.
