4. St Patrick's Grammar School History of St Patrick’s Grammar School While there has been a boys’ post-primary school on Armagh’s Sandy hill since 1838, the present St Patrick’s Grammar school was set in place in 1988 with the amalgamation of Armagh’s two outstanding boys’ grammar schools, two schools with long and proud histories of service and achievement, St Patrick’s College and CBS, Greenpark. St Patrick’s College had been established as a junior seminary by Archbishop Crolly in 1838, and was under the direction of priests of Armagh. St Patrick's Grammar School
