Grammar School student Emily Liffey has been selected as the Dundalk representative in the Rotary Ireland Youth Leadership Competition.
The announcement was made at the annual Dundalk Rotary luncheon in the Ballymacscanlon Hotel on Monday 4th November, and it comes after numerous weeks of interviews of students from local secondary schools.
Emily will now go forward to the regional finals in Navan in the coming weeks.
The Rotary Ireland Youth Leadership Competition is one of Rotary's longest running youth projects and has been going on for over 25 years.
The competition lets young people enhance their personal development by improving their communication and teambuilding skills.
It gives students a platform to gain confidence in public speaking and debating as well as meeting students from around the island of Ireland.
24 winning students from all over Ireland are selected for their leadership qualities and are sent to Strasbourg to the Euro school day where fellow students from all over Europe sit in the parliament and debate topics of special interest.
