We are very proud of out student's record in Comhairle na nÓg (local youth councils) over the years. Participants include Hannah Bolger Mitchell, Maya Kamer, Joy Ajayi and Diarmuid O Hanlon. This year Diarmuid was selected for Dáil na nÓg which is a biennial youth parliament made up of 174 teenagers from all over Ireland who attend the Dáil for a day. Just like real politicans they debate important topics and then vote while in the Dáil chamber. On Friday, May 1st they debated the critical issue of education, one of the biggest topics of concern to young people in Ireland. The outputs of Dáil na nÓg will be submitted to the Convention on Education for their deliberations.
Well done Diarmuid on representing Kildare in Leinster House.
