Stratford College is delighted to share that two of our Transition Year students, Patrick and Omri, have been selected to move forward with the Certified Irish Angus Beef competition.
The students are now brought forward to interview in January and possibly on to Croke Park in March where they stand a chance of winning 5 Angus calves to be reared for them on a farm over the next 2 years. The prize money is worth €3500 and if they are the overall winners they will also receive a further €1,000 each for their third level education.

Congratulations boys and we wish you all the best!
