The Feis Ceoil is Ireland&#8217;s national classical music competition. In it&#8217;s 130 year history, notable winners have included James Joyce, John O&#8217;Connor and Bernadette Greevy. Now, St. Kilian&#8217;s SNS can be added to that list! The choir won their competition &#8216;C\u00f3ir Aon Ghutha&#8217;, winning the Kingston Cup and becoming the first ever group from St. Kilian&#8217;s SNS to win a national award. All nine winners of the national awards qualified for the Folen&#8217;s Choir of the Year competition. Facing some very stiff competition on the night, the choir placed second out of all of the primary schools in Ireland. This is an unbelievable achievement and we couldn&#8217;t be more proud of them. A big thank you to Mr Dignam, Ms Duggan, Ms O\u2019Sullivan and Niamh for all their hard work and dedication in preparing the choir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><a href=\"http:\/\/st-kilians.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/1000076002.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"942\" height=\"727\" src=\"http:\/\/st-kilians.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/1000076002.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-7840\" srcset=\"http:\/\/st-kilians.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/1000076002.jpg 942w, http:\/\/st-kilians.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/1000076002-300x232.jpg 300w, http:\/\/st-kilians.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/1000076002-768x593.jpg 768w, http:\/\/st-kilians.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/1000076002-389x300.jpg 389w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 942px) 100vw, 942px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>On Thursday the 19th of March, the school choir competed in the Feis Ceoil.
