Our story · Since 2021
Our Lady of Fatima
Sisters’ Academy
Rooted in faith. Growing with purpose.
A journey of love, dedication and holistic education, led by the Our Lady of Fatima Sisters.
Faith at our foundation
A calling to educate.
A commitment to serve.
The Our Lady of Fatima Sisters came to Abuja in 2010, at the invitation of their friend Mr. Guilio Noca, to establish the co-owned Fatima School in Utako. In 2021, the Sisters began a new chapter: their own school, Our Lady of Fatima Sisters’ Academy, in Jabi / Daki Biyu.
Established on 20 September 2021, the Academy answered the growing need for quality, holistic Catholic education in this developing part of Abuja. The school is owned and managed by the Our Lady of Fatima Sisters, a religious congregation of women dedicated to education, evangelization and service to humanity in the spirit of faith, simplicity, humility and love.
Inspired by the message of Our Lady of Fatima — prayer, conversion and peace — our pioneering team of 18 teaching and non-teaching staff laid the foundation with faith, sacrifice and dedication. What started humbly has continued to grow in strength, numbers and reputation.
A school where children learn.
