Well done to the 5th year Leaving Certificate Applied students, who took on the initiative of promoting the Darkness into Light upcoming walk on 11th May, at 4.15 am.
Their aim was to increase students awareness of the role of Pieta House in our community. They did this by selling treats for 50c in the canteen,  all funds will be donated to Pieta House.
Nenagh College are proud to have hosted the first ever Nenagh Darkness into Light walk in 2015, raising over €26,000.  Students in the Nenagh College continue to support Pieta House, by walking the 5km every May.
Students are reminded to take note of all the supports available to them, which are highlighted on the wellbeing notice board.

A huge thank you goes out to Val and Elaine, from the National Learning Network, who called to Nenagh College Leaving Certificate Applied students to showcase their centre and the courses on offer. They are Ireland’s leading provider of specialist individualised education, training and development opportunities. They aim to empower people to undertake positive learning pathways through inclusion in training, further education, higher education, and working life.

Our transition year and exchange students enjoyed a very adrenaline packed day in Emerald Park on Wednesday. Great fun was had by all involved!! 🎢

Ms O Keeffe would like to thank Clodagh Lenihan (youth officer, with The Society of St Vincent de Paul, SVP) who spoke to 5^th year LCVP and 6^th year LCA students on Tuesday 30^th April, about the foundation of the charity and the role they play in society.

They are involved in many projects such as personal house visits, education grants, supporting adult, older people, child and youths, social housing projects, holiday breaks etc.

The charity secures finance from donations and also from its 230 local Vincent’s charity shops located in every county around Ireland. The Vincent’s charity shops are a very important aspect of the service SVP provides. Not only do they provide people with new or lightly worn items at affordable prices, they also provide an income source for the Society, which is recycled directly back into the community.
