Colour Run information for parents
Dear Parent(s),
You may be aware that Tuesday 2nd April is World Autism Awareness Day. Numerous events will be held around the globe to celebrate the day.
At Nenagh College we are delighted to share in this global awareness and will celebrate the day on the last day of Ethos Week 2024, Friday March 15th.
Ms. Crowe along with Ms. Devitt and the staff and students of the centre, are organizing a “colour run” to celebrate the day and to raise funds.
Our choral group will arrange to provide treats and entertainment to the old folks in some of the local facilities, with the funds raised.
All classes will take part in the run, on the school sports field at 12.30 p.m. according to the following:
- All students can wear green instead of the uniform on school to Friday to celebrate Seachtain Na Gaeilge.
- Students should change into old clothes, preferably a white T- shirt / shorts / tracksuit bottoms.
- Each student must contribute €5 at the entrance to the sports field before the event.
- Students will bring their clothes and school bag etc. to the run and leave the school grounds immediately after the run has ended.
- Supervision class will be arranged for those students who do not wish to participate or who do not have a change of clothes.

On Wednesday at lunchtime our VEX Robotics team had a demonstration in the gym. They showcased their excellent work preparing their robot for this year’s competition and allowed students who are not part of the team the opportunity to test their skills driving the robot.
Thursday at lunch was movie time in the engineering room. The room was open for students to come in a watch Big Hero 6 at lunch time.
Thursday afternoon the first years took part in two technology-based challenges in the sports all. First years used their school devices to complete an “Hour of Code” course on the topic of programming Artificial Intelligence. This was followed by an engineering challenge.

A huge thanks to everyone who took part in our various workshops throughout the week and we are already planning bigger and better for next year.
