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.

5th and 6th Class explored the feelings of happiness, sadness and excitement through their own poetry. Using their typing skills, which are being developed on typing.com, they typed up their poetry. The poems will be printed and displayed outside our classroom.
Best wishes to our past pupil, Alan Moore, who has been selected once more to represent Ireland at this summer’s Cerebral Palsy Soccer World Cup (see insta link below). Alan not only endures disability but has also had two battles with cancer and really is an inspiration for how far a positive attitude will take you!
All our students participated in a wonderful Easter egg hunt to round off our 2nd term. Thanks to Ms. Reynolds for organising the hunt.
Happy Easter everyone!
Today 5th and 6th class had the fantastic opportunity to visit the busy factory of Gibney Steel Products, Drumone, Co. Meath. Gibney’s is a family run business in our local area that designs and manufactures steel products. The children first observed the design process on the computers which is then sent down to the factory floor to be made. They then saw the laser cutting in action and the bending and welding of steel. Many children recognised many products that they themselves have on their farms.
We had a brilliant day being shown the hustle and bustle of an engineering company. We especially loved the surprise of our own steel crest keyring. What a treat!
Rinneamar an iarracht ar na ríomhaire nua. Bhain muid an taitneamh as an tráth na gceist.
