The mother-of-one has been remembered as a 'caring, considerate and loving' teacher who 'poured her heart into her work, always putting the children first'
A Tipperary school has paid a heartbreaking tribute to a beloved teacher and deputy principal who tragically passed away earlier this week.
"It is with broken hearts that we say goodbye to our dear friend and colleague, Niamh. Ever since starting in Boher N.S almost 20 years ago, she has been the heart and soul of our school," Boher NS said in a message shared on their Facebook page. The school paid tribute to the work Niamh did in the local community, particularly her work with the Boher Community Development Group, which was established in April 2020 with the aim of improving community integration and socialisation in the local area.
Parents of pupils who attended Boher NS have also paid tribute to the beloved educator, who they say 'personified the teaching profession'. Niamh, who was a former student of Mary Immaculate College, was a keen sportswoman who played soccer, rugby and camogie in her spare time, with Ballina GAA club paying tribute in a message shared online.
