County Final Cookery Competition

Kayleigh and Angela achieved great success in the TY County Final Cookery Competition held in Archerstown, Thurles on Thursday 30th of January. The girls dedicated several weeks to practicing and perfecting their dishes. Despite the fierce competition, their hard work paid off, and they secured third place in the event.

They had to incorporate as many locally sourced ingredients as possible. They researched a variety of locally grown and produced products, along with ingredients from their polytunnel, to create their menu. They prepared homemade lasagne with chunky chips and a zesty slaw, followed by a Swiss roll with fresh strawberries and cream.

Thanks to their teacher, Nichola Carey, for her unwavering support and guidance throughout the process. Her encouragement and expertise were instrumental in Kayleigh and Angela’s success.

Thanks to Fergal, Rita, Helen and their teams in Archerstown for facilitating the Competition and best of luck to the winners who will be representing Tipperary in the All Ireland in Cavan.

Well done Filip!

We are incredibly proud of Filip Wiewiora a student of Nenagh College, who played a vital role in supporting Mary’s Meals in a recent fundraiser in the Abbey Court Hotel on Friday 31st January 2025.

Through their efforts, they have helped bring hungry children into the classroom, where they can gain an education and better opportunities for the future. Mary’s Meals currently serves 2,429,182 children every school day, and with just €22, they provide a child with meals for an entire school year.

We were thrilled to have Gary Lowe visit our TY students again to discuss their upcoming Student Enterprise Competition in Thurles on March 7th, 2025. Gary’s talk was both inspiring and informative, providing our students with valuable insights and practical tips for their entrepreneurial journey. His enthusiasm and expertise have certainly ignited a spark of creativity and ambition among our young entrepreneurs. A huge thank you to Gary for his time and wisdom.
