Bray & North Wicklow Youthreach<br />
Graduation 2015<br />
Bray & North Wicklow Youthreach held their graduation<br />
ceremony in June for all students who completed the two year<br />
programme and achieved their QQI (FETAC) Level 4 Certificate.<br />
The singing group opened the ceremony with a beautiful<br />
performance. Michelle Keating (acting co-ordinator) spoke to<br />
all in attendance and reassured all students that the door will<br />
always be open for advice and guidance as they head out into<br />
this next part of their lives. Student, Ciara Butler was the star<br />
on the day as she received the “Student of the year award”.<br />
This was awarded to Ciara for her commitment, enthusiasm,<br />
and eagerness to learn and for always giving a helping hand in<br />
the centre. The ceremony closed with a photo slideshow of all<br />
the memories and experiences that each and every individual<br />
student contributed to the centre. Light refreshments were<br />
provided before students, staff, family and friends sat down to a<br />
three course meal, beautifully prepared and cooked by the staff<br />
and students themselves. A lot of time and effort went into every<br />
last detail for the event, from decorating the room right through<br />
to the staff waiting on students and their families; something<br />
the students really got a kick out of. All of the students looked<br />
fantastic in their graduation gowns and all of the staff team in<br />
Bray & North Wicklow Youthreach are very proud of the young<br />
adults they have become. The journey wasn’t easy but it was<br />
worth it.<br />

Busy Summer Programme in<br />
Buncrana & Glengad!<br />
The Buncrana and Glengad Youthreach centres in Inishowen, Co Donegal had a<br />
very busy and successful summer programme this year. The photos give a small<br />
flavour of what they got up to including MUSO (previously known as Songcraft)<br />
working with the learners to create their own song, having an environmental<br />
clean up in their area, holding their annual open day which included learners<br />
receiving a range of awards, hosting a barbecue in the Glengad centre for special<br />
needs students from the Little Angels school and promoting Youthreach at the<br />
annual Inishowen Agricultural Show.<br />
