Rory Murphy, 6th Year, writes about the opportunities which 5th and 6th year students had when they visited the Higher Options exhibition in the RDS on Friday, 18th September.
On Friday 18th September, the 5th and 6th years went to The Irish Times Higher Options, a day where all of the colleges in Ireland and a few from around Europe and England send students to the RDS to talk to 5th and 6th years about the different courses their colleges offer. The day was very engaging with many different perspectives on different courses and helped me to decide which college was the one for me. Thanks to Mr. Culliney for organising the visit for all the Leaving Certificate students.
