Congratulations to 11th class students, Siddarth Sethuraman, Jan Przybyszewski and Oscar Carruthars, for their convincing performance at the Model European Council Debate, held in Dublin Castle last Friday, 9th March. They represented the Ministry of European Affairs for Estonia and debated the European Commission’s White Paper on the Future of Europe.
The debate was formally opened by Helen McEntee TD, Minister of State for European Affairs and was chaired by Catherine Day, the former Secretary-General of the European Commission. Ambassadors of all the EU Member States embassies to Ireland were in attendance and photographed with the teams representing their countries. Siddarth, Jan and Oscar were worthy representatives of St. Kilian’s.
