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.

Having learned about time and the various methods of recording time, our 5th and 6th class students created their very own “Water Clocks”. The aim was to create a functioning water clock with which one could measure a specific length of time. Not only were the children’s engineering skills put to the test, they also discovered a difficulty when working with water……………….. it gets everywhere!!!!!
Our 5th and 6th class students were putting their debating skills to the test recently. Having spent a number of weeks practicing persuasive writing and debating techniques, there were two excellent debates held. The topic was “Should children wear uniforms in school”. All teams conducted themselves in an excellent manner and we wouldn’t be surprised to see one or two familiar faces in the Dáil in the not too distant future!!
It’s early spring but that hasn’t stopped the snow falling in Ballinacree! Enjoy it while it lasts!
Ms. Sorohan’s 3rd and 4th class students were busy making St. Brigid’s crosses.
