It was fantastic to have the chance to put what we had seen in the courtrooms all week into practice." Dearbhla Tracey, St. Colmcille’s School, Knocklyon, Dublin 16 “It was an absolute privilege to have had such a unique opportunity to explore the legal system in Ireland. I also had the honour of meeting Chief Justice Susan Denham. Truly, was one of the best weeks of my life!" Oisίn Bowyer, Carndonagh Community School, Co. Donegal “I most enjoyed the trips to the Four Courts and the Criminal Courts of Justice because I was able to see the court setting and how barristers work. The tour of the King’s Inns was absolutely fantastic, to see all those painting, wear the robes that students wear to dine and see the huge dining room." Weronika Ozog, Mount Carmel Secondary School, Dublin 1 "I feel honoured to be the first student to participate from my school in this programme. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to The Bar of Ireland for their flawless organisation of the programme and the genuine kindness and knowledge they displayed to every student throughout the week. I believe this programme has greatly influenced my view on what I would like to become later in my life."
