We were delighted that one of our students was chosen as a finalist in the National TY Short Story Competition which is sponsored by School Print Resources. It was clear from the Judging Panel’s words that they had taken time and care in reading the many entries and had some insightful comments to make. There was a lot of thought put into the event with finalists receiving a framed certificate, a prize and also their stories printed in a booklet to keep as a memento. The students were interviewed afterwards about their story writing for a TY Hub podcast which was then followed by lunch in Dail Eireann. Thank you Tom and Niall for both a wonderful competition and awards ceremony.
