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.

Congratulations to Anthony, Patrick, Nicole, Quentin and Clare on winning the ‘St. Fiach’s Cup’ 5 aside soccer tournament. In an exciting final, they came out narrow winners after a dramatic penalty shootout. Well done!!!
It was a brave effort from Shannon, Eleanor, Ivan, Niamh and David but they just fell short. Well done to everyone in 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th class who participated in the tournament.
Our top goal scorers of the tournament were Cormac and David. We might have future Robbie Keanes on our hands!!
Congratulaions to Patrick and Rory Smyth on their achievements in the Meath Fleadh Cheoil held in Enfield recently. Rory won a medal in the flute category and Patrick won a medal in the tin whistle category. Well done boys!
