Busy times at Newport College

The Healthy Home Chef Competition

Congratulations to Abbie McInerney and her teacher Ms Lee for their work in the St Angela’s Healthy Home Chef Competition 2024. Abbie was selected to travel to Sligo to make her dish, a homemade pizza with caramelised onion, rocket and ham. The competition was open to all post-primary schools on the island of Ireland as well as Youthreach Centres in the Republic. Well done and best of luck, Abbie.
