Links to the Community
Hamilton High School has deep roots within Bandon Parish and surrounding parishes.
Hamilton High School has links with the GAA clubs and assists a TY coaching programme in conjunction with clubs.
The Kevin O’Leary Motor Group sponsor our school teams in GAA.
Our Green Schools Committee and TY has forged links with the Bandon Tidy Towns committee.
The business community in the town sponsor advertisements in our annual TY publication Forthright.
The local business community and civic organisations offer their expertise and guidance for the Transition Year programme in particular (local Tidy Towns’ Association, West Cork Rapid Response, Bandon Office Supplies, Bandon Co-Op, St. Michael’s Centre, Bandon).
The business community in Bandon and its environments are hugely supportive in their provision of work placement opportunities to our TY students so that they can gain valuable work experience.
The school has close links with local charities, An Garda Síochána and worthy causes (e.g. St Vincent De Paul, Bandon Community Hospital).
Local businesses also sponsor fundraisers for the school such as the Hamilton High School Tractor Run and in September 2026 we will host a golf fundraiser.
