AFFILIATION
It is 120 years since Terenure College first became affiliated to the GAA - Dublin City and County. In 1885 we were the only school affiliated along with six Clubs: Faughs, Davitts, Metropolitans, Dunleary, Dalkey and the All-Ireland Hurling Club.
The following quote is the resolution of the students and staff establishing a GAA Club in Terenure College in 1885:
"That believing it to be one of the functions of educational establishments to provide for the physical, no less than the moral and intellectual training of the rising generation of Irishmen, in accordance with the instincts and traditions of their ancient race, we hereby form ourselves into a branch of the GAA to be called Terenure College Branch of the GAA."
- Dublin County Board, Official Brochure (1934), p26.

This year, the school won a number of major titles in both Football and Hurling – The Tom Quinlan Shield at First Year level, 1st Year Dublin Schools Hurling Blitz Champions, Dublin Senior Hurling Champions (Division ‘C’), Under 16 Dublin & Leinster Schools Football Champions
Next year, we hope to continue to build on our progress in both football and hurling. We are very proud of our new full sized pitch and as part of our 150th Anniversary celebrations our Gaelic Pitch was officially opened by the GAA President, Mr. Christy Cooney on the 28th of November 2009.
Many thanks to all of the staff who devoted their spare time to coaching and organisation. Thanks also to the local GAA clubs in the area: Faughs, Templeogue, Ballyboden St. Endas and St. Judes for their help and facilities.
