Congratulations to O'Fiaich College Dundalk On Being Named Sky Sports School Project of the Year


I would like to congratulate O'Fiaich College in Dundalk on being named Sky Sports School Project of the Year.  This is a huge accolade for the students, teachers and school community.

The students at O'Fiaich College set up a 10 week project to encourage goal-setting and raise motivation levels with each student setting goals both behaviourally and physically at the start of the project.  During the 10 week project students worked on a different sport each week.  At the end of the project their was clear improvements in attendance and overall outlook.

Congratulations to everyone involved on their hard work and dedication in making this project a success.  I would also like to commend teacher, Brendan O'Malley on being nominated for the Sky Sports Teacher of the Year Award.

The students will be receiving the award this weekend in Wembley Stadium.
