Well done to those who dressed as their favourite book character for World Book Day 2025.
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.

Stop Motion Animation in Rang a 5 agus Rang a 6
Fifth and Sixth Class tried their hands at Stop Motion animation last week. We looked at important place Ireland has in the world of animation. We tried making one object move, like jumping on a trampoline. Next, we tried to get two characters moving. Once every had the hang of how stop motion worked, the class worked in groups to create simple storyboards and aimed to take 100 photos to make 20seconds of animation. Once they were done with animating their stories the work of audio recording started. What a fantastic start into the world of digital storytelling!!
