Massive thanks to Mr Heffernan, Mr Kennedy and all at Nenagh College for inviting 5th Classes to an exciting Engineering module. The girls learnt so many skills in the 3 weeks, and were very happy with their engineered LadyBugs 🐞 👏😍
Margaret from the library visited our school today. She read some great stories and told us all about the work that takes place in the library. We will all be sure to visit the library over the summer months. 📚📚💕
A big thank you to Ronán from Drumador for making our drumming workshop so much fun. We learned lots today and had great fun in the process. Thank you to our vibrant Gaelbhratach team for giving us the exciting opportunity to engage in this activity. Is breá linn Gaeilge. #Gaelbhratach
A huge well done to all our pupils who took part in the Tipperary Primary Schools Indoor Athletics competition yesterday. Congratulations to our 6th class pupil Adelina on winning 2 silver medals in the long jump and 60m sprint and also to fellow 6th class pupil Maria, who won silver in the 400m race. Thanks to @nenagholympic AC on a superbly organised day.
Today our 4th Class students became engineers!! 🎉
Using recycled toilet roll tubes, teamwork, creativity and lots of problem-solving, the children designed and built their own marble runs. They explored ideas around gravity, speed, force and design while testing, improving and rebuilding their creations.
There was fantastic teamwork, perseverance and creativity on display throughout the classroom — and plenty of excitement when the marble finally made it to the finish line! 🎉
We are so proud of the effort and enthusiasm shown by everyone. Future engineers in the making! 🚀🛠️

Congratulations to the 6th Class pupils of St Mary’s on making their Confirmation today. It was a very meaningful and reverent ceremony, reflecting the preparation and care shown by the children.
Sincere thanks to the families, parents, teachers, the parish team, Bishop Fintan, and the school team for all their work in making the day so special. Thanks also to our fantastic school choir for their lovely singing, which added beautifully to the ceremony.
Well done to all involved. We hope the confirmation candidates enjoy celebrating this special occasion with family and friends.
5th Class have been learning all about Wood Technology at Nenagh College over the last 3 weeks. They have learned all about the tools used in woodwork such as mallets, vice, dowels, pillar drills and sanding machines. They made candle holders, letter stands and hanging key holders and had such a great hands on experience. Thanks to Nenagh College teachers Mr Brian Quinn and Mr Mikey Heffernan for inspiring and guiding our students. They loved their Wood Tech experience😁
A huge thank you to Nenagh College for generously allowing us use of their fantastic Astro Turf pitch as we prepare for the upcoming Munster Soccer Finals in Cahir Park AFC on May 7th ⚽️🙌🏽
The girls had a brilliant session and were especially delighted with the complimentary water afterwards 😎— a lovely touch that was very much appreciated!
A fantastic day at the FAI Primary Schools Tipperary Cup as our Red team secured an incredible 4-0 victory over John the Baptist to win the county final. The girls showed huge determination and teamwork throughout. A special mention to Ella in goals, stepping into the position for the first time and making some brilliant saves, backed up by a solid defence. There were great performances all around, with Leahnora and Kate each netting hat-tricks.
Our Navy team also put in a strong effort, finishing with 1 win, 1 draw and 2 losses. With several players only taking up football this year and playing their first matches, they should be very proud of their progress.
The Red team now look ahead to the Munster finals in Cahir Park AFC on May 6th, with a chance to reach the national final in the Aviva Stadium.
Thank you @faireland @faischools for a great day!

Bhí am iontach againn during Seachtain na Gaeilge this year, with great energy and spraoi throughout the school.
We enjoyed plenty of activities along the way, including running some fun competitions, celebrating our Gaeilgeoir na seachtaine, and marking a fantastic Lá Glas with a real sea of green all around the school.
We finished up with our Seachtain na Gaeilge assembly, where ranganna from junior infants right up to sixth class took to the stage and performed a variety of pieces as Gaeilge, including dancing, ceol, short dramas, poems and songs.
A special thank you to Adrian McIntyre from Conradh na Gaeilge who joined us for our assembly. It was wonderful to have him with us and to see organisations that promote the Irish language coming into our school community.
It was a wonderful way to celebrate our culture, make use of our cúpla focal, and most importantly, enjoy the Gaeilge together. Bhí sé go hiontach ar fad.

🚓👮♀️ A big thank you to Garda Maureen who visited our Junior Infant class today!
The children had a fantastic time learning all about what a Garda does and how they help keep our community safe. They discovered important things like what number to call if they ever need help from the Gardaí, and they were fascinated to learn about the many ways Gardaí travel — by car, bike, horse, boat and even helicopter! 🚗🚲🐎🚤🚁
Our curious Junior Infants had lots of wonderful questions, and Garda Maureen was so kind to answer them all. It was an exciting and educational visit that everyone really enjoyed.
A great day was had by all — thank you for visiting us!
