The Catholic church is exclusive in that it practices closed communion. This means that only those baptized into and thus confessing the Catholic faith are entitled to practice communion during a Catholic service, the eating and drinking of Christ's body and blood. So yes, the Priest was correct. Being a protestant, I imagine you are used to a more inclusive practice but there are a few denominations that do exclude certain christians. It's a practice that is much-debated within the Church, and not one you should take personally. Any non-Catholic would have been turned away.

I say this being unable to ask for a clarification - I assume by "leave my nieces communion" you mean you were unable to partake in the wafer and wine. Not that the Priest asked you to leave the service itself. If that was the case, something wonky is going on and I would need more information to better help you.
