On Thursday the 11th of May, three GCS students were among a group of students who were honoured by Medtronic for their achievements in either Engineering or Technology subjects in their Junior Cycle. All those awarded had achieved a Distinction in either subject. They were invited to attend an awards evening in Medtronic Parkmore to acknowledge their result. This is an amazing achievement and deserves recognition since only 2.2% of students achieved this grade in Engineering or Applied Technology in 2022. The following GCS students were presented with awards on the night,
Neva Sirola, Patrick Kilheaney and Darragh Kilmartin.
