We have been collecting Aldi tokens for the last two years & we are delighted with the PE equipment sent to us from Aldi. Junior Infants made use of the tag rugby equipment for today's PE lesson.

The boys in Senior Infants & 1st Class took part in Yoga with Siobhán again this year. Once again it was a huge success and the boys enjoyed the weekly sessions. Ms Moloney's class also practiced yoga for P.E. lessons which they really enjoyed.

Huge thank you to Nenagh Eire Óg & All Ireland winning Tipperary hurlers for bringing the Liam McCarthy  cup & the Nowlan Cup to St Mary's Junior Boys' NS today. The boys were delighted to meet their heroes today and get to see & hold the cups. Up Tipp!

Thanks to Shay & Ziggy from Nenagh pool who came to our school to teach 1st Class all about water safety.... just in time for the summer.

Thank you to Shay & Ziggy for their continued support. Thank you also to Ms Gavin for organising the talk.

Our school & the Tipperary Sports Partnership have formed a relationship since we embarked on our journey to work towards becoming an Active School. 

The Tipperary Sports Partnership offered training to our teachers Ms. Moloney & Ms. Shanahan in the Be Active programme. The Be Active programme gave our teachers many ideas which can be used in our school. Once a month we have an "Active Day" where we get to take part in different activities from the Be Active Programme.
