I would like to welcome you to the website of St Joseph’s CBS –
Our school has a long and proud tradition of education in Nenagh, dating back to 1862 when the Christian Brothers first came to teach at John’s Lane. We moved to our present campus at Summerhill in 1970, where we enjoy excellent facilities, which we are continually upgrading for the benefit of our school community.
Here at the CBS, we strive to provide an excellent working environment for all our students and each individual is encouraged to work to the best of their ability. We promote a respectful community for our students and staff, built around a firm but fair discipline system with a strong pastoral emphasis.
An enthusiastic and dedicated staff provide a very comprehensive curriculum, where all students have access to every subject and are encouraged to progress at a pace that best suits them. You will find our school has a warm and friendly atmosphere, which is characterised by a personal approach, and every student is a valued member of the school community.
The success of our students over the years has been exceptional, both in further education at diploma, degree and post-graduate level, as well as in their chosen trades and employment. Their success at home and globally is a source of great pride to us and it is always rewarding to see our past pupils make their mark in the world.
The current management and staff are honoured to continue to contribute to the legacy of education in Nenagh and to further the work started by the Christian Brothers over 150 years ago.
