Fáilte go Scoil Naomh Fiach!
As Principal of St. Fiach’s N.S., I am thrilled to welcome you to our vibrant and close-knit school community. Nestled in Ballinacree, our school is a place where children flourish academically, socially, and spiritually. At St. Fiach’s, we celebrate the individuality of each student, helping them develop into confident and compassionate individuals, fully aware of their unique talents and role in the world.
We are especially proud of our rich tradition of academic excellence, participation in sports and the arts, and our commitment to environmental sustainability through initiatives like the Green Flag program. Our dedicated staff fosters a spirit of curiosity and creativity, guiding students through a range of enriching activities, from Seachtain na Gaeilge Week to Active Week celebrations, where fun and learning go hand in hand.
Our Catholic ethos inspires us to create a nurturing environment where children can deepen their faith, develop lasting friendships, and cultivate a positive attitude towards life. Tá sé mar aidhm againn cabhrú le gach páiste a bheith sásta agus muiníneach, agus muid ag forbairt ár gcreideamh mar phobal láidir agus tacúil.
Go raibh míle maith agat as do spéis, agus tá súil againn go mbainfidh tú taitneamh as d’eolas a fháil faoi Scoil Naomh Fiach.

Special thanks to Ciarán from Athletics Ireland, who delivered the Try Track and Field initiative in our school over the past few weeks. Pupils had great fun developing their athletics skills through a variety of running, jumping, and throwing activities using a wide range of equipment. It was a fantastic experience, enjoyed by everyone involved, and we are very grateful to Ciarán for his enthusiasm and expertise.
Lots and lots to celebrate in June’s assembly. Congratulations to all those who achieved class awards, Fís Film awards, Texeco Art competion awards and any other extra curricular achievements. Maith sibh!
On Saturday, our 2nd Class celebrated a very special milestone as they received their First Holy Communion. It was a beautiful and memorable occasion for all involved.
A sincere thank you to Ms. Smith for all her hard work, guidance, and preparation of the children throughout the year. Your dedication is greatly appreciated. We would also like to thank Fr. O’Connor for celebrating such a meaningful and lovely Mass with the children and their families. A special word of thanks to Bean Uí Chonduibh for preparing the choir so wonderfully. The children sang beautifully and added so much to the celebration.
Finally, thank you to all the parents and guardians who helped decorate the hall and prepare everything so beautifully for the celebration afterwards. Your support and generosity helped make the day extra special.
Congratulations again to all the children on their First Holy Communion. We are very proud of you all.
Our 3rd and 4th class students visited Gibney’s Steel Products in Moylagh on Thursday. It was a fascinating experience to see first hand how the various steel products are manufactured. The students, especially our young farmers, were particularly interested in the troughs and gates.
A big thank you to Oliver, Elma, and Patrick for giving us such an informative tour and for taking such great care of us throughout the visit.
