Welcome to Blackrock College, Day and Boarding School for Boys in Dublin, Ireland.
Blackrock College, set in 56 acres of rolling parkland on the broad sweep of Dublin Bay, lies four miles from the city centre. Founded by the Holy Ghost Fathers in 1860, Blackrock is one of the Order’s five schools in Ireland and is run by the Congregation in close co-operation with a dedicated group of lay personnel.

In this way, we prepare our students to be the best that they can be when they leave Blackrock, instilling in them a strong sense of justice, a desire for a more caring and compassionate society, independence of mind and respect for the dignity of all.
For over 100 years the boarding school has been an integral part of Blackrock.

However, all hope was not lost in the college, for our Lion promised that his legacy will live on. Now it’s 2020, the school is in despair, and Jr. has wandered down the wrong path. With his animal instinct still coursing through his veins, will he lead the school to glory?
