Our Senior Boys Volleyball team played very well in Watershed (Killkenny) before midterm. Unfortunately, Tyndall College were more prepared. Well done to the schools involved (Patricinan Press) for making an enjoyable day before the holidays. Nenagh College Volleyball will come back stronger!

Transition Year Ceramics

Nenagh College Transition Year students had a fantastic time during a hands-on pottery workshop led by ceramic artist Thomas Wollen!
The students enjoyed learning the art of pottery, from shaping the clay to designing their own unique pieces. Thomas shared his expertise, guiding them through the process, and inspiring everyone to explore their artistic side. It was a memorable experience full of creativity, fun, and teamwork.
Huge thanks to Thomas for bringing his passion and skills to Nenagh College! We can’t wait to see the finished masterpieces!
