Congratulations to Rory O'Neil and Diarmaid Kelly who got through to the semi-finals of the Senior Literary and Historical Debating Competition in Trinity College.

European Youth Parliament

Congratulations to Jorden Bukspan (5th) and Rory Murphy (TY) who represented Stratford College at 2013 European Youth Parliament (EYP). The results of the competition will posted in the new year. Let's hope they have similar success to our previous contender, Diarmaid Kelly, who was chosen to represent Ireland as last years EYP session held in Berlin.

Junior L & H Debating Competition

Every Monday evening, the English room becomes engulfed by eager debaters, hungry to learn the skills of oration. Alanah O'Byrne (2nd), Cormac Kelly (2nd), Eoin Little (1st), Jake Turley (1st), Megan Wynne (1st) and Ana Jovanovic (1st) have all admirably represented Stratford College at UCD. They're thriving under the expert tutelage of Lucy Murphy, a past pupil, and Ms S. O'Sullivan.  We look forward to a new round of debates in the Spring.
