Dermot Tierney, James Kilkenny, Joey McBrien and Darragh Gormley from Carrigallen Vocational School exhibited at the 2024 Certified Irish Angus Schools Competition at Croke Park on Friday 1st of March.

The competition, supported by ABP and Kepak, challenges students to rear five Irish Angus calves and learn about the care and attention required to produce quality beef for consumers.

Five out of the forty-three exhibiting schools that best demonstrate an understanding of the project along with innovative ideas will be presented with Irish Angus calves at the National Ploughing Championships in September 2024. Pic: Fennell Photography
