Great Results for Hazelwood College in the ‘Artists for Tara’ Competition

Two Hazelwood College Students were prizewinners in the Artists for Tara Competition which was held recently. This was a nationwide competition whereby students were asked to create paintings or write poems and stories in response to the proposed motorway through the Hill of Tara. Triona Sheehy, a second year student was a prizewinner in the artistic section. As a result her work was exhibited from the 11th to the 13th of March at the Artists for Tara Exhibition in Temple Bar, Dublin. Another second year student Marion Browne was highly commended in the writing section of the competition.
