European Youth ParliamentBest of luck to Rory O’Neil, Katie McCrea and Diarmaid Kelly from TY who are taking part in the Leinster heat of the European Youth Parliament (EYP) this weekend(4th and 5th February).  It is being held in St. Michael’s School, Donnybrook, Dublin 4.

The European Youth Parliament was founded in 1987. The aim of the international organisation is to encourage youth all over Europe to be active European citizens. EYP promotes the European dimension in education and gives students and teachers an opportunity to participate in a practical and positive learning experience. 

As well as being a very social event, participating in EYP helps to foster important skills such as communication skills, teamwork, research skills and the appreciation of different points of view.
