Congratulations to all our Christmas tree designers who participated in this community project in support of St Mary’s 5th Annual Christmas Tree Festival. We have an entry from the 6LCA group under the Guidance of Ms O’Malley. Many of the staff of Nenagh College designed trees for this worthwhile community project, Music Dept. with Ms. Tierney, Art Dept. with Ms. Beirne & Ms. Knight and the Irish Dept. with Ms. Slattery. Students worked in groups to achieve innovative fun and creative pieces. Well done everyone.

Well done to our Second Year Home Economic students who visited Butlers Chocolate Factory.

On Friday 7th December, 7 of our TY Students braved the elements to help the service users and volunteers of Nenagh & District Mental Health Association raise funds to support the associations activities for another year.

Well Done to: Sean Richardson, Jack Nolan, Dylan Morrison, Ryan Cotterell, Joe Connelly, David Haverty and Paul Haugh.

Big Brother Big Sister at Nenagh College is off to a flying start this year. Our TY students were eager to meet our new first year students taking part in the programme. The group have gone on walks together, competed in an anti-bullying poster competition and recently completed Christmas baubles. Well done to all.

Well done to 5LCA who are developing their skills in Hotel Catering and Tourism class where over the past few weeks they have cooked up and served restaurant quality dishes. 

 

 

 

The Transition Year students from Nenagh College enjoyed a Brrrrrrrrrilliant day out in Dublin this week! Students were entertained at Dundrum on Ice and you can see, great fun was had by all. If you look closely enough you might even spot some of the brave teachers…they were certainly skating on thin ice! Students then enjoyed some Christmas shopping in Dundrum Shopping Centre. A wonderful start to the festive season. Thanks to TY Year Head Mr. Shrahan for arranging such an enjoyable day.

Nenagh College was delighted to host Intercultural Day 2018. With stalls representing food and culture from many different countries in Europe and all over the world, it was a fantastic opportunity for our students to experience different dishes unfamiliar to them. The event was organised and hosted by our PLC Social Studies class, TY EU Studies Class and 6LCA. All proceeds were in aid of Temple Street Hospital.

 

 

Our First Years enjoyed their workshop in the Hunt Gallery today where we met Ceramic Artist Mike Byrne. They studied the art of Vessel making and the students are now inspired to create their own creations in Visual Art Class Tomorrow.

We also attended A Viking Workshop where all the Viking were investigated and handled.

Finally we visited A Romanian Exhibition, Muldova and it’s culture and art, food and textiles were investigated. The day was led by the Education Officer Maria Cagney at the Hunt Museum, Ms. Beirne (Art ) and Ms. Slattery (PME English and Irish) We are most grateful to her and her team for the day and look forward to our In house Workshops on 15th December.
