Ahead of St Patrick’s Day, our talented musicians performed a Céilí in the Canteen!FET Open Day
Students from Nenagh college visited the FET open day in Limerick. They toured the FET Campuses at Mulgrave Street and Central College Limerick. Thanks to the staff and students at both colleges for facilitating the visit. A special thanks to Margaret Meehan from LCFE and Olive Ryan in CCL for their warm welcome and for showing us around and taking the time to go through the various courses on offer and how to apply. We had the pleasure of meeting former students Rhain Bray and Charlie Williams, who are both completing QQI level 5 courses.
Nenagh Schools Public Speaking Competition
The Nenagh Schools Public Speaking Competition organised by Nenagh Lions Club, took place in the Main Council Chamber in Tipperary County Council Civic Offices yesterday. We are very proud of our team, Sebastian Siwek (captain), Killian Lane, Blanca Wrona and Xander Gregan, who eloquently discussed the topic, 'Lough Derg - local amenity or natural resource?' with powerful, well researched speeches. Well done! Thanks to Nenagh Lions Club for organising and Tipperary County Council for hosting this event.
Colouring Competition
As part of our recent school musical, Nenagh College invited students from local primary schools to take part in a special poster competition. Each student was given a blank stage template and encouraged to design their own musical scene - and the creativity was incredible!
A big thank you to Ms Beirne, our art teacher, for judging the competition. The winning students from St Mary's Primary School, CBS Primary School, Community National School, St Mary’s National School and the Gaelscoil were thrilled to receive an Eason voucher and have their photos taken with our talented Transition Year students who performed in the musical. Well done to everyone who entered!
Pancake Tuesday
Home Economics students had a blast cooking pancakes, engaging in various competitions to determine the ultimate champion. The contests were intense, with first-year students Bella and Saoirse excelling in pancake shapes, Rayassa in TY showcasing the best decorations, and Liadh in Second Year standing out as the most enthusiastic flipper of pancakes.
Jigsaw Fundraiser
Well done to the Student Council who organised a fundraiser for Jigsaw recently. Denis Ryan from Jigsaw kindly visited the school to accept the donation of €280 from Killian, Student Council Chairperson, and Treasurer, Annabel. A big thank you to all who supported this organisation, which provides mental health information, guidance and support to 12-25 year olds.
