School History

Pres Ballingarry

When one looks back over the 140 years of the religious and educational establishment known affectionately as ‘the convent’ one realises the enormous contribution that the school has made to the local community since its foundation on August 22nd 1871.

The school has developed from being an elementary school at the outset to a renowned boarding school throughout the 1900’s and to a modern voluntary secondary school of over 300 pupils in the new millennium.

On August 22nd 1871, Rev.Mother Aloysius Green accompanied by four members of the Thurles Community – Mother De Sales Ryan, Mother Regis Croke, Sister Patrick Butler and Sister Magdalene came to Ballingarry. These sisters endured the trials and hardships of any new religious foundation but were buoyed up by the fact that more than 100 children were enrolled for the Elementary/Primary School that they established.

The succeeding year brought developments and extensions to the convent. There was the building of the Primary School, the establishment of a Boarding School in 1887 and the construction of a Chapel in 1916. In 1940 a substantial extension to the convent resulted in the provision of classrooms, a study room and dormitories. In 1961, the first ever prefabricated building in Ireland was erected.

1967 saw great change with the growing need to consider co-education – this they embraced with enthusiasm answering the needs of the community at this time. The present school was opened in 1983. In the 1990’s further expansion took place, particularly in curriculum development. New courses such as the Transition Year Programme, Leaving Certificate Applied and Leaving Certificate Vocational Programme were included.

Plans are currently in progress for a new extension which will include a purpose built modern gymnasium. The school community marches proudly into its third century, continuing to provide excellence in education.

This unique property is set in a picturesque location with a number of possibilities for use including outdoor pursuits venture, corporate entertainment or a hostel subject to the necessary planning permissions.

presentation convent ballingarry

Founded on August 22, 1871 the school developed from a primary school to a renowned boarding school running up until 1983 when a new school was built.

In 1871 Rev. Mother Aloysius Green, accompanied by four members of the Thurles Community; Mother de Sales Ryan, Mother Regis Croke, Sister Patrick Butler and Sister Magdalene, came to Ballingarry and welcomed 100 children to the new primary school they had established. The boarding school was established in 1887.

In 1940 a substantial extension to the Convent resulted in the provision of classrooms, a study room and dormitories and in 1961 the first ever prefabricated school building in Ireland was erected in what became to be known as St. Patrick's Wing.

The other prefab wing of St. Joseph's and the old hall was added, by degrees, in the 1960s. The Old Hall was extensively refurbished to mark the 130th Anniversary. The 1960s also saw great change with the introduction of free education by Donagh O'Malley in 1967. The Presentation Sisters saw the growing need to consider co-education, which they embraced with great enthusiasm, thus answering the needs of the time within the Community of Ballingarry and its environs.

The 1970's saw a further expansion and development, eventually culminating in the opening of the present school in 1983. However with the decline in religious vocations, the Presentation Sisters decided on the closure and sale of the convent.

Ballingarry Parish Priests

The deanery of Ballingarry, on the eastern (Co.Kilkenny) boundary consists of five parishes: Ballingarry ; Drangan; Gortnahoe ; Killenaule; Mullinahone. ( Appreciation to Billy Walsh for the following)

SUCCESSION OF PASTORS IN BALLINGARRY PARISH

Rev. Andrew Denton – 1303

Rev. Philip Cahill – 1471

TRAVERS, THOMAS, PP Ballingarry in 1652 He was one of the clergy who signed the postulation for Fr.Fabian Ryan, OP, STM, as Archbishop of Cashel, 1652 (APF, Fondo di Vienna, Vol.xiv,ff .87,88,93,94).

KELLY, WILLIAM, PP Ballingarry—Crohane—Lismalin 1704 He registered in Nenagh, 11/07/1704 as PP of the above parishes; he was then aged 72 and resided at Gragaugh, Ballingarry; he was ordained at Ferbane by Dr. Anthony Geoghegan in 1661 (IER, xii-522). No doubt he was PP in Ballingarry long before 1704, and according to tradition he was 50 years PP there and was buried in Lismalin. Perhaps the William Kelly who resided in Mohober in 1665-67 (Laffan: Hearth Money Records for Co.Tipperary, pp.34,139); possibly the William Kelly who was a witness to the will of Ellen Butler, dowager Viscountess of Ikerrin, of Lismalin, 28/12/1668; it is said that Fr. Kelly was closely connected with the Ikerrin Butlers.

LONERGAN, LAURENCE, PP Ballingarry 1731—1756, Archdeacon Believed to have been a native of Killenaule parish; possibly the Lorenzo Lonergan (presumably a student of the Irish College of St. Patrick of the Pure Conception and of the Holy Catholic Faith, Seville, Spain) who received orders in Seville as follows: Tonsure and Minor Orders, 19/09/1704; Subdiaconate, ‘a titulo de Mission”, 22/09/1708; Diaconate, 07/10/1708; Priesthood, 14/10/1708 (Arch.Hib.xxiv—138). The Protestant Report of Rev. Thos. Sharpe, Vicar of Killenaule, 30/11/1731, states that Laurence Lonergan was PP Ballingarry and had one mass—house and one popish school (Arch.Hib.ii—114).

. Visitation of Ballingarry, 09/07/1752: chapel of Ballingarry, dedicated to the Assumption, in good repair; other ancient dedications in the parish listed. PP, Laurence Lonergan, had his collation to these parishes from Abp. Christopher Butler, so he was not PP before 1710 (Visitation Book, pp.85—87). Visitation, 10/07/1754: Rev. Laurence Lonergan and his coadjutor, Rev.Jn. Maher; inventory; description of chapel; dedications; register is kept. The piece of ground on which the chapel is built was reserved by Mr.Fanning when he sold his lands to Mr.Jacob (ibid. pp.133—4). Fr. Lonergan was Archdeacon of Cashel but from what date has not been discovered. He died in 1756, aged 77, and was buried in the old churchyard of Ballingarry; his tombstone, the inscription on which is very worn, seems to record that he was 47 years pastor. His chapel was at Kilbaheen, a few hundred yards from the present church; he lived at Springfield, or Gortnecrohy (a house later occupied by a McGrath family). His will was proved in 1759 (Thrift’s Index). The will of Con Lonergan of Gortnecrohy was proved in 1762.

MEAGHER, JOHN, PP Ballingarry, 1756-1790 Born in Lismalin, 1709; ordained in Thurles chapel by Abp. Christopher Butler, 17/09/1742 (Visitation Book,p.106), and was one of the 10 priests of the diocese who took the Oath of Allegiance with Ahp. James Butler in 1781 (Arch. Bib. i—76). He was CC Killenaule, 1749—54 (Killenaule Register); CC Ballingarry and, on the death of Archdeacon Lar Lonergan in 1756, PP of the parish, formally inducted Jl/07/1758 (ibid.p.155—6). He died /07/1790 and was buried in Lismalin. The assertion that he was buried in the elevated part of Ballingarry graveyard does not appear to be correct; Hugh Callanan of Crohane, in his will dated 08/01/1792; stipulated that he be buried in Lismalin, convenient to the remains of Rev. John Meagher, PP Ballingarry; the will of Fr.Meagher himself, dated 24/06/1783 (proved 1796) directs that he be interred under the tomb erected by himself in the churchyard of Lismalin (.Callanan Papers in NLI). Fr. Meagher’s sister, Anne, was the mother of Archdeacon Pat Fox, PP Mullinahone. Visitation, 1758: Fr.Meagher’S chapel was at Kilbaheen, a few hundred yards from the present church; PP keeps a register; schoolmasters were Thomas Keating, Thomas Kennedy and James Butler; dedications of sites..

WRIGHT, RICHARD, DD, PP,Ballingarry 1790—1804; – Kilbaheen,& Present Site VO, Cashel 1804—21 Dean of Chapter Born in Thurles, 1747, a member of a family who had become converts to Catholicism. Educated in the Irish College, Paris; he was the last student of the diocese for whom a collection was taken up prior to his going abroad. He was CC Killenaule, 29/04/1778—07/1790. He was then appointed PP Ballingarry. Possibly he went to France in 1780, and is the “Abbe Right” mentioned in Boyle’s “Irish College, Paris”, p.56. He was appointed PP Cashel and VG, 03/11/1804, and had a Papal Brief for the Deanery of Cashel, 20/12/1804 (13 kal. Jan.1805). In Cashel he lived in a house on the Terrace, on the east side of Lady’s Well, which house was later occupied by John Davis White. Dean Wright died (before a new Archbishop was appointed) on 20/07/1821, in the 74th year of his age, and was buried in Cashel at the north gallery. Dr.Laffan, the future Archbishop, was then elected Vicar Capitular.

CAHILL, EDMUND, PP Ballingarry, 1804—1812 – Present Site A native of Cloghetany (the part in Drangan parish) and a grand—uncle of Fr.Richard Cahill, PP Tipperary. He was present at Conferences in Thurles from 09/1793, and is found as CC Moycarkey in 1799. From there he was promoted as PP Ballingarry. He died in 1812, and is buried in Ballingarry chapel yard where there is a monument to his memory.

LUBY (LOOBY),THOMAS,PP Knockainy 1808-12; Ballingarry 1812—20 – Present Site A native of Clerihan parish. Educated in Carlow Collage, 1796—1802; ordained c.1802. CC Cashel, 1802—05; CC Fethard, 1805—08; appointed PP Knockainy in 1808(?). He began the Register there (in a beautiful hand) 14/03/18?.; from that date until the end of the year, he baptized 197, in 1810, 132, and in 1811, 96. He was translated as pastor to Ballingarry 05/1812, and died there, 05/1820. He was buried in the old church but when the present church was built (1820—28) his remains were re—interred in the graveyard beside it. He is remembered for his piety and amiability.

PRENDERGAST, EDMOND, PP Ballingarry, 1820—52 – Educated in Carlow College, 1809—12; ordained, 1812. In Tipperary Conference area from 1812; found as CC Knockavilla, 1818—20, and possibly spent most of his curacy days there. He paid a pastor’s cathedraticum for the parish of Ballingarry, 01/05/1820, but in 07/1820, at Dr. Everard’s Visitation of Ballingarry. it is mentioned that the parish had no PP,and that Fr. Prendergast was “coadjutor”. When Dr. Laffan became Archbishop, he questioned Fr.Prendergast’s appointment as PP, but Fr. Prendergast was able to produce a letter written to him by Dr. Everard, in which he was described as PP Ballingarry. In 1826, however, he had to surrender the townlands of Upper Crohane and Lismolin to the projected new union of Drangan and Cloneen, as his predecessor had promised to surrender that portion of his parish. On 06/05/1828, he laid the foundation stone of the present spacious church of Ballingarry, and later erected a school in the chapel yard.

FITZGERALD, Dr.PHILIP, PP Ballingarry, 1852—69 A native of Lattin parish; his parents, Thomas Fitzgerald and Ellenor Meany, died of fever in Oct, 1817, aged 54 and 38 respectively; he was an uncle of Fr. John Murphy, PP Ballybricken, and grand—uncle of Canons William and Martin Fitzgerald. Said to have received some of his education in the Irish College, Rome; entered the Theology Class, Maynooth, 25/08/1831, and was ordained in Maynooth 24/05/1334 (Hamell). CC Kilcommon, 1835—36; 2nd CC Galbally, 1837; CC Kilteely, 1838—39; CC Cappamore, 1840; taught in a classical school in Doon, 1841—42; CC Ballingarry, 1842—52, during which time he saw the ravages of the Famine, and the abortive rebellion of 1848 — he wrote a short account of this insurrection; he also witnessed heart—rending evictions on Lord Desart’s estates in 1850 (Life of Frederick Lucas, ii—217f). Fr.Fitzgerald was appointed PP Ballingarry in 1852, having been administrator of the parish for the previous two years. He died in 1868, and was interred in Ballingarry. When in Rome 07/1862, he obtained the degree of DD by papal brief dated 31/07/1062. He purchased a house and 27 acres from his predecessor in Ballingarry; these he left by will for a religious foundation; they were first offered to the Christian Brothers who declined the offer; Dr.Leahy then offered the premises to the Presentation nuns of Thurles who accepted; four nuns with Mother M.de Sales Ryan as Superioress opened a convent there in 1871; it flourished and prospered. Dr.Fitzgerald also left £680 for a burse for a Cashal student in the Irish College, Rome, and £400. for a place in All Hallows, Dublin, for a poor student from Ballingarry.

The Parochial House was built by the Presentation nuns, 1886; Dr.Croke gave them £500 for it, the PP to pay him £25 p.a. for the use of it.

Created Canon 21/02/1915; translated to Templetuohy, 02/1924; died aged 92 on 24/02/1942, and was buried in Templetuohy church grounds. During his declining years he had a second curate in Templetuohy. An impressive preacher, he discharged his duties with zeal and fervour; encouraged thrift and industry in a homely way; a fine horseman; gifted with wit, he had apt remarks for occasions, with a sting in the tail when such seemed called for.

NOLAN, JOHN, PP Ballingarry 1924; Tipperary 1932-42, ,VG Archdeacon Born at Lurgoe, Killenaule, 25/07/1865, son of William Nolan, farmer, and Bridget Shelley of Graigue, Killenaule; brother of Fr.Tom Nolan and nephew of Fr.

Somewhat lanky and a little stooped, he was about 6ft.8ins tall, with mental and moral gifts comensurate, one of the outstanding theologians of the diocese, and an authority on Irish, European and ecclesiastical history; a man without guile, simple and unassuming; generous, charitable and the soul of hospitality, an entertaining conversationalist, beloved by priests and people.

He enjoyed good health up to a fortnight before his death, when he was suddenly taken ill and moved to St. Anne’s Nursing Home, Thurles. After the removal of a kidney he rallied for a few days but then sank rapidly. A saintly, kindly, genial priest, the mighty concourse of priests and people at his funeral was a fitting tribute to his unselfish and devoted life. He was calmer than his brother Martin, though capable of occasional anger. He was deeply interested in the history of the Archdiocese and collected information on diocesan clergy;he indexed parochial registers; he left his valuable notes to his brother Martin. From 1943 he was National Secretary of the Society for the Propagation of the Faith.

A lover of Gaelic culture and pastimes, he had a fine singing voice and was an accomplished performer of Irish music on flute and piano. He took a keen interest in Gaelic games and accompanied the Tipperary hurling team to the USA in 1931. He was a zealous and efficient pastor.

Old School House Living was born out of a love of all things for the home.

Following a career break and the renovation of two period houses, the owner Aileen, decided to take the plunge and do something she'd long dreamed of, that is, to restore a former school house and open a shop selling everything from lamps to plants and candle sticks to coffee.

Having spent the past 18 months gathering treasures and sourcing unique, special pieces and with the building renovated, Aileen has recently begun opening the space and welcoming customers from near and far. With award winning, Tipperary roasted Ponaire Coffee and locally baked treats on offer, Old School House Living is quickly becoming a shopping and lifestyle destination to rival all others. 

The Building

Many visitors to Old School House Living will know this space as the former girls' primary school and more recently as the study hall for boarders at the Presentation Convent, Ballingarry so it's a very special experience for people to walk through the doors after many years, to admire the beauty of an old, familiar building but to see it being used in a new and exciting way. With an area set aside for yoga, wellness, art classes and retreats, this beautiful building is once again giving back to the community in a very special way.  

Viewing and Sourcing

If something has caught your eye on the website or on social media and you'd like to see it in real life before purchasing, please just email  [email protected] and I will arrange a suitable time to view.

If there is anything you're particularly interested in but you don't see on the website please drop me an email and I would be happy to source that special piece for you, be it vintage or new!

Slieveardagh barony historic graveyard survey.

The Slieveardagh Hills in south Tipperary have a rich, deep history and a community active in researching this history. Slieveardagh Rural Development and South Tipperary Development Compan y have commissioned Historic Graves to train a community team to survey and publish up to 20 historic graveyards in the barony. Training commenced in Killenaule and Ballingarry and also encompassed graveyards at Buolick, Kilcooley and Ballinure.
