Shimna students sweep the board in rowing regatta

Congratulations to the nine students who earned gold medals rowing for the Dundrum Coastal Club at the St Ayles Skiffie Fest Regatta over the weekend. It was a great achievement and a very proud moment for the students, the club and the wider community.

The medallists were: left to right, clockwise: Rose McGrady, Mya Smyth, Maria Cassidy, Ellen Watson, Anna O’Flaherty, Helen Barbour, Niamh Watson, Jamie O’Flaherty, Lucy McGrady

The students are now preparing for the World Championships in July. It will be held off the coast of Stranraer in Scotland, with crews from around the world taking part. It’ll be a great opportunity for our students to showcase their talent on the international stage.

We wish the Dundrum Club the very best of luck.
