President’s Award for Sorcha

Year 13 pupil, Sorcha O’Hara, attained the award following some very dedicated and determined hard work in a range of activities.

Sorcha had to undertake Community Service work, work on a personal skill area, and engage in a programme of Physical Recreation. All three activities had to be continued over a period of 26 weeks.

In addition to this, she undertook a three day/two night ‘Adventure Journey’ hike, in challenging conditions.

Congratulating her, principal, Michael James said: “Sorcha is the first student from Loreto to attain the Silver level of this prestigious award and it is a testament to her hard work, determination and all-round endeavour. An impressive achievement indeed.”
