Congratulations and well done to First Year students Jakub, Joseph and Zena who are all past pupils from Educate Together National School Carlow and recently made a presentation to the Dail on a project they have been working on since 6th class in primary school. The students were selected to present their project based on "making Carlow a better place for young people". The students highlighted issues such as:

Active Travel; Prioritising People; Biodiversity; Street Art and Social Areas. It is fantastic to see our young people being given the opportunity to use their voice. Well Done!
