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.

We had a special treat on Monday when we welcomed 4 football titles to our school. On display were the U10 Somers memorial cup, the U10 Mattie Kevin memorial shield, the Meath Ladies GFC U12 Div 4 cup and the boys U14 Div 6 cup. St. Fiach’s N.S was well represented at all levels and we are so proud of all involved. Congratulations to the players, coaches and mentors on these great achievements.
On Monday June 23rd our 5th and 6th classes went to Quarry Hill, the site of the 1750 Crossdrum Chalice. A special thank you to Mary McCabe who sought permission to walk across the land.
To celebrate World Cup 2014 we held a very competitive and entertaining St. Fiach’s Cup tournament. After our group rounds of games we eventually worked our way to the final between Jack’s team and Dónal’s team. The whole school witnessed an epic final with Jack’s team narrowly coming out on top. Congratulations to everyone for taking part in the tournament!
Our senior classes enjoyed a few basketball sessions lately. A big thanks goes to Seamus for sharing his basketball knowledge and skills with our pupils. Swish!!
Our 5th and 6th class recently took part in a sewing workshop. A big thank you to Eileen McCabe for lending her expertise and the boys and girls are now very capable of tailoring their own clothes!
