5th Years working on their Applied Learning Task in Computer Science. This ALT is on embedded systems and prepares them for the practical side of the course which is worth 30% of their Leaving Certificate.
Here at Nenagh College, we are delighted to be a pilot school for the Computer Science Leaving Cert course. This course enables the students to learn computer programming skills, design and development, computional thinking and how computers and society combine.
During Science Week Nenagh College hosted STEM Days. Where 400 5th and 6th class students from all around Nenagh joined us . They took part in Coding, Home Economics, PE, Woodtechnology, Metalwork and Science. It was great experience for these primary school children to get a taster of secondary school.

Well done to our TY Students who completed a full day workshop at Pallas Driving School earlier this week. TY Students began by working on preparation for the Driving Theory Test followed by an individual Driving Lesson for each student. After a couple of false starts and stalls, our TY students didn’t take long before they were taking on the open road!
Students in home room 2 had a special visit recently from vet Caroline Mounsey and her lovely dog Leia ( as in Starwars!). Students got to listen to Leias heartbeat and find her electronic microchip. They also got to see lots of x-rays including one of a hedgehog! Caroline went through all aspects of owning a pet, from what to feed them, to what it means to be a responsible owner. Huge thanks to Caroline, Leia and all at A Country Practice Veterinary Clinic
