A massive thank you to the committee for organising another extremely successful Careers Fair at the RCS yesterday. A very enjoyable and worthwhile day. Here is a little snapshot of the day. If you would like to present to our students at our next event, feel free to contact us.

We were delighted to have Richie Sadlier here to speak to our senior students about his life and his journey to sobriety and how he manages his own wellbeing. Richie was humble and generous with his time and our students really enjoyed interacting with him. @RichieSadlier

Kieran Cunnigham kindly spent the morning chatting to our TY students about his career as a journalist. Kieran talked to the groups about the different events he covered such as the Olympics and World Cup, his work in the media such as working with OffTheBall. Fascinating listen.
