Thank you to Rowing Ireland for organising the 6 week block of indoor rowing. The year 8 pupils had a fabulous day on the water to finish of the programme. They developed new skills, confidence and team work.

What a day at the Year 8 Fermanagh Blitz!🏐

Our girls played with great determination, teamwork and spirit throughout the tournament, winning 3 out of 4 games to secure a place in the Cup Final. 👏

Although we narrowly lost out to Mount Lourdes Grammar School in the final, the team should be incredibly proud of their performance. The girls showed real grit, resilience and produced some fantastic passages of play across the day. 💪✨

A brilliant effort from everyone involved — the future is bright for this talented group of players! Thank you to all Fermanagh GAA for organising!

Recently we were thrilled to welcome Emmett and Jack from the FODC Climate team to St. Fanchea’s. Together with the Eco Club and Garden Club, they planted a magical outdoor Sunflower Room - an initiative to boost biodiversity and bring outdoor learning to life in schools.

We can't wait to watch the Sunflowers grow and to see huge blooms after the Summer break!

🦋🐾🌳The girls from the PIC wrapped up an amazing 3 day program at Marble Arch Caves and Nature Reserve. From virtual Caves and pond dipping to making bug hotels, animal footprint casting, and setting camera traps, they became true nature experts. The absolute highlight?
