There were five finalists from Newbridge, Kilcullen, Rathangan, and Clane in the Newbridge competition, and the ultimate prize for the winners in Tullamore is an all-expenses-paid trip to Strasbourg to take part in a special sitting of the European Parliament where, along with students from all other EU countries, they will become MEPs for the day.
The other candidates involved in the Newbridge competition were Leon Cully (Ard Scoil Rathangan), Rune Swart (Cross & Passion, Kilcullen), Emily Johnson (Newbridge College) and Catherine Logan (Newbridge College).
The event was adjudicated by three guest judges: Stephanie Brady (HR Consultant), Keith O'Brien (Life Credit Union) & Con McNamara (EBCR).
