A celebration of student achievements was shared at Colaiste an Atha recently as graduates of the Level 5 and Level 6 Certificate in Agriculture courses were rewarded for their hard work.
The event marked the first graduation that the course participants have been able to enjoy in-person since before the pandemic and, according to a spokesperson for the course, it was great to have family and friends of the learners in the room to celebrate the awarding of the certificates in Agriculture.
On the night, Principal of Colaiste an Atha Elizabeth Martin, Wexford IFA Chairperson Jer O' Mahony, FET director of WWETB Alan O'Gorman, Denis Brennan of Slaney Meats and Michael Phelan of Connolly's Redmill's addressed the gathering and presented the certificates and students of the year awards.
