September 27th was a very special day for all in St Fiach’s NS. We held a flag raising ceremony to celebrate our Green Flag Award, our Active Flag award and our European Blue Star Flag. Many thanks to all who celebrated our day with us in many different ways and to the Parents’ Association for their support.

Special thanks also to Charlie O’Neill, who took such lovely photographs on the day and accompanied his Aunt, our Guest of honour for the Green Flag ceremony, Mrs Kathleen Fulthorpe (Gillick) whose father was Principal of St Fiach’s in the 192os. She was delighted to note her excellent attendance in Junior Infants in the Leabhar Rolla.

Mr Michael Heery was our Guest of Honour raising the European Blue Star Flag, and Mr Conor McHugh, our Guest of Honour raising the Active Flag, also had a session with the children afterwards, which was much appreciated by all.
