FAI Futsal

Well done to the boys who represented our school at the FAI Futsal Blitz recently.

Welcome from the Principal

Dear Visitor to our Website,

I am very happy to have been associated with Scoil Phroinsiais Naofa for over many years and to have been appointed principal here in 2019. We are very lucky to have a vibrant, positive staff and a dedicated Parents' Council. Together we try to prepare our pupils for life in the second millennium.

A school is always an important focal point in any community and I am very conscious of the immense effort and co-operation that exists here between the local community and the school community. I hope and pray in the words of Saint Francis that our school will continue to produce young boys’ who will be “ instruments of peace” wherever they go.

Le gach dea- ghuí
