Irish Public Speaking Competition
Mrs Mc Allister, two fourth years and three A-Level Irish students took part in the local round of the Gael-Linn Abair public speaking competition. Many other GCSE, AS and A2 level Irish students from the Newry and Mourne area took part and a wide range of current and topical subjects were spoken about.
