Congratulations to 6th Year students, Gabi Eppel, Alice Murphy and Rachel Jones who are the first Stratford College students in 8 years to be awarded Gaisce Silver Medals. Gabi Eppel, explains in detail what was involved to get this award.
In June 2013, three Sixth Year students - Alice, Rachel and myself - too part in an adventure journey in Glendalough for one night and two days. Although itwas exhausting, it was an incredible experience! We also did 23 weeks of Community work, 23 weeks of a personal skill and 23 weeks of a sport. Along with all of that and trying to put all in the information into diary entries on the An Gaisce website, we are very pleased to be receiving our Silver Gaisce awards in Trinity College in December from the President, Michael D. Higgins.
