We wish to congratulate our 120 successful candidates who have completed the DSD Sprachdiplom of 2024 and were awarded their certificates on October 1st and 2nd, 2024. We were delighted to welcome Mr von Heynitz, Cultural Attaché at the German Embassy and Dr Siobhan Donovan from UCD School of Languages as guests of honour to the celebration ceremony. Mr von Heynitz and Dr Donovan as well as the school principals Mrs Meier and Mr Macmillan commended all candidates on their fantastic achievement and emphasized the importance and advantages of learning German and other foreign languages. Thank you to the Primary School Choir under the tutelage of Ms de Alcantara and our talented students Sarah Longo (piano), Leon Ryan (piano) and Myles Kennedy (guitar) for their wonderful musical contributions. We would also like to thank Jacob Roantree and Thibaut Anderson for their address sharing some personal experiences about their journey of learning German. We enjoyed two fantastic afternoons. Once again, huge congratulations to all and thank you to Mrs Haupt and Dr Baum-Sheridan, Heads of the German Department, for organising two fantastic afternoons enjoyed by all.
