Our Learning Hub series highlights our continuous process of educational engagement and bringing learning to life with our education officer, Conor Reale, and his team.
Before the Easter school break, Conor and his team hosted a group of students from transition year as part of our work experience programme.
The group comprised 16 students from Gaelscoileanna around the country, including Kerry, Cork, Waterford, Carlow, Louth, Dublin and Inis Óirr off the coast of Galway. The education team worked with the youths online before the students visited Leinster House on 21 and 22 March.

The group met the Leas-Cheann Comhairle, Deputy Catherine Connolly, and Deputy Éamon Ó Cuív during their workshops and attended the Dáil Gallery for Leaders' Questions. Along with further workshops, the group also had lunch in Leinster House and took a tour of the parliamentary campus.
