An amazing range of music and dance talent from across Tipperary took to stage at the Tipperary Education and Training Board (ETB) Schools Talent Show 2025 at Coláiste Dún Iascaigh in Cahir on Thursday, 27 February.
Junior and Senior cycle students from Tipperary ETB’s post-primary schools across the county were given the opportunity to perform, as well as bands from Music Generation Tipperary and the Tipperary FET College (Further Education and Training) Level 5 Music course at The Mall in Clonmel.
The event was hosted by a duo of Coláiste Dún Iascaigh post-primary teachers, Aoife Walsh, a former Miss Ireland in 2013, and Shane Ronayne, a successful coach with previous stints with the Tipperary and Cork Senior ladies footballers.
Tipperary ETB Chief Executive, Bernadette Cullen, and Tipperary ETB Chairperson, Cllr Roger Kennedy, welcomed the students, staff, parents and visitors to Cahir for an excellent night’s entertainment.
Tipperary ETB is Patron of 10 post-primary schools across the county – Borrisokane Community College, Nenagh College, Coláiste Phobal Ros Cré, Newport College, Coláiste Mhuire Co-Ed (Thurles), Scoil Ruáin (Killenaule), Coláiste Dún Iascaigh (Cahir), St Ailbe’s (Tipperary Town), CTI Clonmel (Gaelcholáiste Chéitinn and Raheen College), and Comeragh College (Carrick-on-Suir).
