Brid Ui Uait, 9C3 teacher and eTwinning ambassador, was delighted with the well deserved recognition. Brid comments:
'I am delighted that my year 9 pupils have been awarded third place in the annual UK eTwinning awards. This prestigious prize is testimony to my 9C3 pupils’ hard work and commitment to their eTwinning project. It is particularly gratifying that 9St. Brigid’s College is the first school from Northern Ireland to receive this accolade, especially considering that 2009 is the EU designated year for Creativity and Innovation. 9C3’s project Getting Closer is a perfect example of Creativity and Innovation in action'
Well done Brid and 9C3!
