The Hazelwood College Junior camogie team impressed with two very good victories to progress into two different county finals. They are now in the Junior Cork Colleges Competition and the Junior Limerick Colleges Competition. The Hazelwood girls progressed to the Junior Cork Colleges Competition on Thursday 28th of February with a very impressive victory over Bandon in the school pitch. The Hazelwood girls were in control of this game from the very first whistle and dominated throughout the game. The move of Cliona O’ Callaghan from midfield into full forward, due to illness, started the Hazelwood girls scoring spree. This move paid off for the Hazelwood team as she scored her first goal straight away, one of the eight goals that she scored throughout the game. Bandon could only manage one score in the whole game which was a goal that came in the middle of the second half. Hazelwood continued to dominate and they were the deserving winners on the scoreline of 8-10 to 1-00.
Also on Tuesday the 12th of March last, the Junior Camogie team progressed to the Junior Limerick Colleges final. They faced Newport on a bitterly cold day in Newport. Once again the Hazelwood girls started to rule this game from the very start. They took their scores well and started to build up a considerable lead. After the half time break, Newport started to fight back with some scores of their own. The Hazelwood backs withheld the pressure and only conceded one goal. The Hazelwood forwards continued to score and apply pressure on the Newport backs. The game ended with Hazelwood winning out on the scoreline of 6-07 to 1-03. They now progress to the two finals in the respective competitions.

Two talented Home Economics students in Hazelwood College have confirmed that they can take the heat in the kitchen when they wowed judges with their exceptional culinary skills in the Apprentice Chef final held in the Institute of Technology, Tralee on Friday last.
It was a hotly contested final with Julia O’ Doherty TY and Laura Stack 2nd year competing against 6 other finalists from schools in Kerry and Cork. The students had to create a recipe for a main course using ingredients listed in the “Good Mood Food List” with marks being awarded on presentation, quality and skills demonstrated along with a written project.
Laura Stack created a mouth watering dish which consisted of crispy chicken with spinach and tarragon stuffing served with roast vegetable filo basket and a bell pepper sauce. Julia O’ Doherty impressed judges with her sole roulade served on a bed of stir fry vegetables, potato gratin and a prawn bisque sauce. This creation led to Julia being crowned as the overall winner by the judges who commented on Julia’s impressive level of skills for someone so young and her extensive knowledge regarding her coursework. Apprentice Chef Mentor Judge Mark Doe said “We have been blown away by the standard of not only the cooking of the students’ dishes, but just as importantly the standard of projects they submitted”
Julia’s exceptional win was rewarded with a very generously sponsored prize of €1,000 worth of cooking equipment for Hazelwood College by Lee Strand, a three day internship with Apprentice Chef Mentor Simon Regan at the 5 Star Hotel Europe in Killarney, three cookery workshops with Apprentice Chef Mentor Mark Doe at “Just Cooking” cookery school in Firies, three Innerjoy Wellbeing coaching sessions with Susan Fitzgerald, an Apprentice Chef uniform, kitchen utensils and certificate.
Laura along with the other 6 runners-up received prizes consisting of a three hour cookery masterclass at the Institute of Technology, Tralee, an Apprentice Chef uniform and certificate. Their Home Economics teacher at Hazelwood College Ms. Daly was overjoyed with the news and was thrilled that their interest, enthusiasm and talent shone through on the day.

In a keynote address to the STAR Adult Learners and providers, Mr. John Lonergan, former Governer of Mountjoy Prison, spoke of the need “to celebrate and give hope, meaning and affirmation to people, especially in times of recession”.

The creation of oppertunities for oneself and for others to grow and reach their full potential, was regarded as one of the most valuable things we can do in our lives.”

On Wednesday 20th of February last, the Hazelwood College Junior Camogie team played Carrigtwohill in the Junior Cork Colleges Competition, in the sports complex in Carrigtwohill. It was a bitterly cold day with a howling wind, which were not the best conditions for a Camogie game. Hazelwood had the advantage of a strong wind in the first half. They took advantage of this strong wind straight away after the ball was thrown in. Cliona O’ Callaghan got Hazelwood off the mark with a fine point resulting from a great solo run from midfield. The Hazelwood girls continued to dominate the game throughout the first half with further scores through Cliona O’ Callaghan, Marie Danaher and Laura Stack just before half time.
After the break Hazelwood faced some pressure from the Carrigtwohill team as they now had the advantaged of the strong wind. The Hazelwood backs led by Tara Fitzgibbon dealt with the pressure as they cleared every ball that came their way. However, the Hazelwood girls also did continue attack. Due to this pressure the Hazelwood girls continue to score some excellent points through Chloe O’ Brien, Emma O’ Callaghan and Tara Fitzgibbon. Carrigtwohill finally broke the Hazelwood defence down and scored a scrappy goal. However, this was all that they managed to score in the entire game. After this Hazelwood applied even more pressure and they finally got the goal that they deserved through Tara O’ Leary. The game ended with Hazelwood wining on the scoreline of 1-10 to 1-00. It was a great victory and they now go on to the next round in the competition.
