Some of Ms. Kirwan’s 2AS SPHE students took on the role of mentors as they delivered some fantastic talks to the 1AT Learning to Learn class!

Sharing their own experiences and practical advice, they helped our First Years navigate the busy world of secondary school - from organising lockers and managing homework to being punctual, developing good study habits and staying on top of school life! 🎒📝⏰

A wonderful example of students supporting students, building confidence, independence and valuable life skills along the way! 👏🌟

Some photos from the IrFWU Public Speaking Competition in UCD  on Saturday. Ance, Clare, Nicole and Abigail represented Presentation College and while they didn't place this time they have gained valuable experience and knowledge for future events. It was their first time participating in such an event ! Hats off to these girls for putting themselves out there and working so hard on this for the last number of weeks. After getting some good constructive feedback from the adjudicators, the girls are a step ahead for their next competition. Thanks to Ms Kirwan for her support and encouragement.

On Friday, 21st November, fittingly the Feast of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary, a distinguished gathering from the world of academia converged on the Seven Oaks Hotel in Carlow for the nineteenth annual Presentation College Academic Awards ceremony.
