Fundraiser for Mary’s Meals
Mary’s Meals is a Scottish charity, who provide life changing meals to some of the world’s poorest children. Children receive a meal each day they attend school. It costs €18.30 to feed a child for a year.
This year our 6th year Leaving Certificate Applied (LCA) students decided they wanted to be part of this global movement. They did this by having a bake sale in the school and they raised €85. They would like to thank Mr Kennedy and Ms Carey for their continued support.
Ms O Keeffe would like to thank all those who supported the bake sale, as every little effort can make a huge difference to whole communities across the world and help pave the way for lasting change.
Whole School Assembly
Principal, Damien Kennedy addressing the Nenagh College students at the first ”live” whole school assembly, since the 5th of December 2019. For those in 1st & 2nd year, it was their first experience of a whole school assembly. This was one of the first occasions which signalled a return to school, as it was pre – Covid.
Nenagh College trip to Manchester
55 students gathered at the ungodly hour of 4.30 a.m. on Saturday 19th February for their departure to Manchester. Uncertainty around the weather did not dampen spirits as the group set off in the midst of Storm Eunice. Manchester City v Tottenham Hotspur was the highlight of the tour, with a guided tour of Anfield an added bonus for the Liverpool fans in the group, none more than Mr. Quinn!!
A shopping trip and overnight completed the stay before the group set out to face storm Franklin for the journey home. Thanks to Ms. Collins, Ms. Ruiz, Mr. Quinn, Mr Macken and tour organiser, Mr Heffernan for organising the trip. Well done to all the students who were impeccably behaved, as always.
