Kells' excellent high school facility offers classrooms equipped with advanced teaching technologies (including both PC and Mac laptops, SmartBoards, and iPads) for Secondary I-IV classes. The building houses both Music and Art rooms, our own IT/Resource Centre, a Learning Centre, and a Science Lab.
