St. John’s Primary School, Kingsisland was built in 1967 to replace the old school building. It is

situated in the picturesque townland of Derrytresk, a rural setting on the south-western shore

of Lough Neagh about 3 miles from Coalisland. 

The School  is situated adjacent to St Columcille's Church Kingsisland and plays a focal part in

the life of the community.

Most of our pupils come from the surrounding localities of Derrytresk, Derryloughan, Clonoe

and Coalisland. 

The school’s greatest resource is a professional, dedicated and caring staff which is committed

to the achievement of high standards and care of its pupils. 

The school prides itself on its warm, welcoming friendly atmosphere. We are a very family

oriented community, with priests, staff and parents working together to create the best

possible learning environment for our children.
