We aim to provide a high quality comprehensive education which caters for the diverse skills and aptitudes of our school community. We are committed to the care and development of each individual in a happy school atmosphere which offers children and young adults opportunities to develop as good citizens, proud of their inherited values and beliefs. Our school operates on the premise of due respect for the beliefs of all. Our School is a community where students, staff and parents support each other; an effective school results from productive teamwork; Ni neart go chur le cheile. In that context Borrisokane Community College is an effective school and, on behalf of our Board of Management, I wish to state that we will continue to commit ourselves to providing a College where the education of children takes pride of place and where the highest standards and aspirations will continue to be our challenge. The new building project was completed during the summer of 2013 and as a result state of the art facilities are available in all subject areas. Matthew Carr.

This places extra resources at our disposal, enabling us to offer a wider curriculum than if we were on our own. The College also has a Board of Management, composed of representatives of parents, ETB members and teachers. The Board of Management meet to discuss the school’s programme, facilities, etc. Board of Management Members: Mr. Chris Young Parents’ Representative Mr. Francis Bourke, Teachers’ Representative Mr. Joe Murphy, TETB Representative Ms. Margaret Mary Dwyer TETB Representative Ms. Maeve Ryan, Teacher Representative Ms. Lisa Mulvihill, Parents’ Representative Ms. Maura Kennedy, Community Representative Mr. Tony McKenna Community Representative Mr. John O’Farrell Community Representative Ms. Lorraine Cahalan Community Representative Mr. Des Conroy, Community Representative Mr. Matthew Carr, Secretary Ms Suzanne McMahon Recording Secretary Parents’ Association The College has a very active Parents’ Association with representatives from each part of the catchment area. Various fund raising events are organised throughout the year and the funds raised are used to update facilities at the school. From April to December 2013 the Parents Association raised over €100,000 to equip the Autism Centre to a high standard and to provide activities for students outside of the centre e.g. horse riding, swimming, outdoor education centre, etc. In addition to these formal structures, parents are always welcome to call to the school to view our facilities or discuss the progress of their children. In addition each year, we have Parent/Teacher meetings when parents are invited to the school to meet all teachers. Meetings for parents of first years are organised in early October to give them an idea of what new subjects involve and ideas on how parents can help with their child’s education. Meetings also take place when students are making important decisions such as choosing subjects for the Junior and Leaving Certificate. The aims of the Parents’ Association are: • to represent the views of parents. • to inform parents of developments in education and in the school. • to foster co-operation between parents, teachers and school management. 10 Borrisokane Community College Teacher Induction Process We seek to promote a caring and committed school community which will facilitate the education of our students and where each individual is valued as a unique human being. “Is ar scáth a chéile a mhairimid” Welcome to Borrisokane Community College.

  • Tipperary News Part 6
    Clonmel Advertiser. 20-4-1822 We regret having to mention a cruel and barbarous murder, attended with circumstances of great audacity, that has taken place on the borders of Tipperary and Kilkenny. A farmer of the name of Morris, at Killemry, near Nine-Mile-House, having become obnoxious to the public disturbers, received a threatening notice some short time back, he having lately come to reside there. On Wednesday night last a cow of his was driven into the bog, where she perished; on Thursday morning he sent two servants, a male and female, to the bog, the male servant to skin the cow and the female to assist him; but while the woman went for a pail of water, three ruffians came, and each of them discharged their arms at him, and lodged several balls and slugs in his body, and then went off. This occurred about midday. No one dared to interfere, either for the prevention of this crime, or to follow in pursuit of the murderers. The sufferer was quite a youth, and had committed no offence, even against the banditti, but that of doing his master’s business. Clonmel Advertiser 24-8-1835 Last Saturday, being the fair day at Carrick-on-Suir, and also a holiday in the Roman Catholic Church, an immense assemblage of the peasantry poured into the town at an early hour from all directions of the surrounding country. The show of cattle was was by no means inferior-but the only disposable commodity , for which a brisk demand appeared evidently conspicuous, was for Feehans brown stout.

Member of "Knocklong Rescue" Party. Vice Comdt., 6th Battn., East Limerick Bde. Subject. Irish Co. Galbally Coy., Volunteers, Limerick, and No. 3 Flying Tipperary Brigade, Column, 1913-21. Conditions, if any, Stipulated by Witness. Nil. File No S.2970. Form B.S.M.2 STATEMENT OF MR. JOHN J. O'BRIEN, 29 Emmet Road, Inchicore, Dublin. I was born at Mitchelstown, Co. Cork, in the year 1897, being the youngest of three brothers in our family. In the same year, my father, William O'Brien, who had a drapery premises in Mitchelstown, transferred his business to Galbally Co. Limerick, where the family went to reside. I was educated in Galbally and, at the end of 1912, I went back to Mitchelstown as an apprentice to the drapery business in the firm of Denis Forrest, Lower Cork St., and, later, as an assistant in O'Keeffe Brothers. When an Irish Volunteer Company was formed in Mitchelstown, early in December 1913, I immediately joined. I think the first company captain was James O'Neill of Mitchelstown. We did a lot of training which included route marches on which we were generally accompanied by two bands a pipe and a brass. Shortly after the Great war started in l914, some of the company officers including, I think, James O'Neill, went to Birmingham, England, and there purchased about 40 Lee Enfield rifles and 100 rounds of ammunition per rifle for the company, They got the rifles and ammunition safely to Mitchelstown.

  • The Mcgraths of Turraheen by Michael F
    The McGraths of Turraheen by Michael F. McGraw, Ph.D. [email protected] November 21, 2018 Introduction The McGrath families described in this paper were initially identified by linking information found in the Griffith’s Valuation, for the civil parish of Clogher, with the church records in the Parish Registers. Later, this family information was supplemented with civil birth, marriage and death records and the 1901 and 1911 census records. Bordering Moyaliff parish on the south is the civil parish of Clogher. The border between these two parishes is also the boundary between the North and South Ridings of Co. Tipperary. It is also the boundary between the Upperchurch-Drombane RC parish and the Clonoulty RC parish. In addition it is also the boundary between the Thurles and Cashel Poor Law Unions (PLU) which later became the Superintendents’ Registrars Districts of the same names. The proximity of several significant boundaries near the residences of ones ancestors automatically doubles the number of records that need to be searched. The Griffith’s Valuation for the parish of Clogher shows eleven (11) unique individuals named McGrath, in the townland of Turraheen Lower. This particular townland is just across the Turraheen River from the townland of Drumdiha, in the civil parish of Moyaliff. Drumdiha is the townland where Edmond and Mary McGrath (my gg-grandparents) were living when their first two children were baptized at Upperchurch (1842-43). A summarized listing of persons of the surname McGrath in the Turraheen Lower townland in the Griffith’s Valuation is shown below: Lot No. Occupier Name Acres 3A & 3B Mary McGrath 18 6 Thomas McGrath 23 8 Philip McGrath 28 9A & 9B Patrick McGrath (Jas.) 12 10 James McGrath, Sr.

  • Annerville Awards to the 2008 Tipperary Sports Stars
    Tiobraid Árann Abú - United Sports Panel 1959-2009 in conjunction with Bulmers Ltd Golden Jubilee Presentation of the Annerville Awards to the 2008 Tipperary Sports Stars 1 in Hotel Minella, Clonmel on Saturday, 31st January, 2009 United Sports Panel 2009: Back Row (left to right) Eamonn Wynne, Johnny O’Loughlin, Dave Hallinan, Seamus McCarthy, David Clancy, Liam Ó Donnchú; Front Row (left to right) Jimmy Cooney, Seamus King, James Holohan, Ken Conway, Richie Blanche. 2 Foreword When a number of sports enthusiasts got together in 1959, little did they realise that they were starting something that would stand the test of time and be still a force 50 years later. Led by Sean Barlow and the late Sean Lyons the United Sports Panel was formed. They felt the time was right to have an Award Scheme in the county to honour amateur sports stars in their chosen sports annually. In fact, one should note that these were the first such awards in the country. As well as honouring Tipperary’s outstanding amateur sportspersons the United Sports Panel had another aim, as expressed by the second chairman, the late Tom Halpin, when he presented the awards in 1964. He expressed the hope ‘that functions such as these, which brought the stars of various sports together, would help to promote unity in sport.’ Like all innovations, it was not without its teething problems. Finding ways to finance it and getting venues were just two of them. In the early days businesses in Clonmel were canvassed to sponsor the trophies. This problem was eliminated for the 1964 awards when Messrs Showerings Ltd.
