Kay's Flower Arranging and Floristry School was established by Mrs. Kay O’Rourke in 1987 and has built up a revolutionary approach to the training of Florists. Kay's is the only Full-Time Commercial Floristry School of a kind in Ireland.

The aim of Kay’s Flower School, aspire is to make Commercial Floristry and Flower Arranging more accessible to individuals who simply enjoy flowers in their home or a florist who wish to improve their floristry skills and may have the ambition to make floristry a career.

We offer a full back up service to past and present students who need advice on techniques, costing, pricing or any problems they encounter with their designs

Kay’s Flower School students are in demand in Flower Shops who require staff throughout Ireland and many of our past students work from home are freelance florist or have gained employment in florist shops and numerous of our past students are now running successful business in almost every County in Ireland.

In the past twenty years we have been very successful in organizing work placement for suitable students. Students do not need to have any previous flower arranging experience, although we highly recommend all students start with Module1. (Flower Arranging)

All modules start with a beginners section and costing, purchasing and the selling price of each design is taught on each course. There are no age or sex barriers as our students are aged eighteen to eighty years old.

Students receive practical instructions in the best of modern floral design used by leading florists and are supervised by expert and talented teachers.

Being the owners and managers of a successful Florist business’s for 5 years and running our Training School for over 20 years, the tutors at Kay’s Flower School  have a vast experience and knowledge of the daily running and the pitfalls and challenges faced by students intending to work in from home or own their own florist business.  

At Kay's School of Floristry we can advise students on the tips of the trade, how to deal with customer and trade enquires, where and when opportunities arise to create more business and the best way to deal with these situations. 

Kay's School of Floristry is an independent business, that means we can tell you all the tricks of the trade and our aim is to support and advise students on opening and managing a floristry business or indeed working from home or as a  freelance florist.
