St Ninian’s Modern Languages Awards
Joe Mullanney Award
This award which is given every year in memory of our former teacher, Jo Mullanney, has this year been awarded to our recently graduated sixth year and Head girl Nuala McBride for her excellent effort and work in class and her overall commitment to the Modern Languages department. With her award Nuala was presented with a cheque for £100 for her to spend on studying materials.
Monsignor Monaghan Award
This award is given out each year in the name of Monsignor Monaghan in recognition of his dedication and devotion to St Ninian’s High School – it’s staff and pupils alike.
As part of this award the nominated pupil will receive a £2,000 cheque which must be used towards the cost of a minimum two week linguist course in a country of their choice and the pupil must also be committed to further education in languages.
The school is delighted to announce that this year the Monsignor Monaghan award is being given to Louisa Preston, our recently graduated sixth year, who has not only excelled in her own linguistic development but has demonstrated an outstanding level of commitment to the Modern Languages department throughout her six years as a pupil. Louisa is looking forward to furthering her studies in Mandarin as she looks forward to a year abroad studying in China
Congratulations to both Nuala and Louisa we wish you both every success in the future.
