Several students had their work selected and were entered into the biannual German Olympiad which is organised by the ‘Goethe-Institut’ worldwide. Two years ago Fiona Butler and Meadhbh Broderick from Presentation College were Finalists and Meadhbh took First Place in Ireland. This enabled her to spend three weeks in Freiburg in the south of Germany along with another Irish student and the top two from each of 85 countries worldwide. This year the theme of the competition is “Meine Lieblingsstadt in Deutschland ist..” (My favourite city in Germany is…) We are delighted to have entries from Eva Kavanagh – who made a video about Berlin, Wicktor Pinski who wrote about Frankfurt and Aibha Kiernan who selected Düsseldorf as her favourite city in Germany. We wish all three the best of luck in the competition.
