IrWFU Public Speaking Report

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.

First and Second Year girls took part in the Lidl #SeriousSupport programme with Anne Marie Doran yesterday. This initiative aims to reduce drop off rate in sport participation in young girls while promoting support for those who are still involved. Thank you to Ms Fogarty who organised this workshop and we look forward to welcoming Anne Marie back for the practical workshop in a few weeks time.

Guidance News

January was another busy month in the Guidance Department at Presentation College. CAO deadline looming had us busy with our individual appointments working with students on their applications and DARE forms for some. We had representatives from @SETU, @CarlowCollege and @DCU presenting to our senior students. Sandeep Kumar, an engineer from MSD, spoke to our Transition Years as part of Junior Achievement Ireland. Students engaged well with Sandeep and will put his words into practice in their guidance classes over the next while. The KCETB Apprenticeship Expo held at Tyndall College was an opportunity for those seeking apprenticeships to meet employers and give in their CVs. Ms McCarthy was looking after the Sixth Years, ensuring they were fuelled for their mock exams. Click on the heading for more photos.
