Senior History students take part in Inter-Schools History Quiz

NEWS / 21 January 2015

5th Year History student, Maeve Crossan, explains how the Stratford history team did at the Inter-Schools History Quiz on Monday, 19th January in Tallaght.

On January 19th, four senior students - Niall Halloran (5th Year), Oscar McHale (TY), Jake Long (6th Year) and I - attended the Annual Schools History Quiz in Tallaght Community School. We were one of twenty schools to attend. Sadly, despite our last-minute studying we finished in the bottom half of the scoring. Nevertheless, it was a very enjoyable night and we gained a lot of experience of it for next year.
