Our recent enterprise event proved to be a fantastic success, showcasing the creativity, professionalism and entrepreneurial talent of our students.
The event brought together over 50 students from Form 3, an excellent turnout especially with State examinations approaching. Throughout the morning, students presented business ideas, delivered pitches and displayed innovative products and services, demonstrating impressive teamwork and communication skills.
A special word of thanks goes to our judges, Shane O’Sullivan (Class of 2013) and Mark Delaney, for generously giving their time, expertise and constructive feedback to the students. Their insight added enormous value to the learning experience. We also extend our sincere appreciation to Eoin McDonnell from Whizzkids and the Local Enterprise Office for his continued encouragement and support of the Enterprise Module.
The standard of this year’s event was particularly impressive, with a noticeable improvement in both the quality of business pitches and the exhibition stands compared to previous years. Students displayed outstanding confidence, creativity and professionalism throughout the competition.
