1916 Proclamation Day Ceremony

Nenagh College was honoured to hold the 1916 Proclamation Day Ceremony on Tuesday 15th March. 2016 is the 100 year anniversary of the Easter Rising and the reading of the Proclamation on the steps of the GPO by Commander in Chief of the Irish Forces, Padraig Pierce. Many thanks to the History Department: Ms. Murphy, Ms. Heffernan, Mr. Cox, teaching staff and students for their hard work and dedication. All across Ireland, primary and secondary schools held a flag raising ceremony of their own to mark this centenary. Many of the important items on display include a copy of the Proclamation of the Irish Republic and the Irish Tricolour Flag.  2016 is a very special year marking one of the most important milestones in our nation’s journey to independence and peace.
