Welcome

Message from the Principal

Welcome to the Holy Faith Secondary School website. Whatever your interest in our school, we are delighted that you are taking the time to learn a little more about us.

Here at Holy Faith, Clontarf, we offer an educational experience rooted in the core values of Margaret Aylward, the foundress of the Holy Faith Order. Margaret was driven by an appreciation for the gifts of Faith and compassion, insisting that her institutions would always be “schools of Faith – a Faith that is living and operative”, a vision that we celebrate and protect in our school today.

Our school stands as a place of opportunity and hope. Each day, our students walk through these doors carrying unique talents, dreams, and potential. Our mission is to nurture that potential—to challenge, support, and inspire each young girl to become the very best version of herself. Our dedicated staff work tirelessly to create a learning environment where every student feels valued, supported, and challenged to excel.

Our State Examinations results reflect the school’s high academic standards and the importance we place on teaching and learning. This, however, is not the sole focus of the school. While we celebrate academic achievement and encourage intellectual curiosity, we also recognise and honour achievement in sport, the arts, leadership, and community involvement. Success takes many forms, and we are committed to helping each student discover and develop their strengths.

If you are a current parent or student, I hope that this website provides you with up-to-date information on the school. If you are a prospective parent, you are welcome to contact us for further information concerning enrolment procedures.

Le gach dea-ghuí.

Audrey Carty,
School Principal
