ANOTHER school year is coming to a close at Mercy Mounthawk so it’s an appropriate time to look back on the achievements of students.
With that in mind, the annual Awards Night honours students for their academic, sporting, artistic, cultural and civic skills. The school gym was packed on Wednesday night with students and their families for the occasion and a number of awards were handed out.
The CEIST award went to Sinead Foran and Donagh McMahon, Male Sports Personality of the Year went to Michael O’Gara, while Orla O’Reilly won Female Sports Personality of the Year.
