Wexford community celebrates Irish and Polish cultures as part of vibrant and fun festival
Polska Éire is a nationwide event which celebrates the cultural exchange and integration between the Irish and Polish communities in Ireland. Polska Éire started in north Wexford 10 years ago, when Gorey library was contacted by the Polish Embassy to organise an event. After this first gathering, a group who were in attendance connected and decided to continue with the celebrations. Speaking after the festival in Gorey, organiser Ola Riquet said, "What started as an afternoon in the library turned into this huge thing, which we are very proud of. It's something that was inspired by that afternoon but also by our children. "Back then, our children were very small and some of us were only pregnant but we had a strong feeling that we have this amazing knowledge and heritage in us and we want to pass it on to our children. At the same time, we want our children to grow up as Irish citizens and be just a little bit richer because they have the knowledge from their parents'. In the years since then, the group have held many more events, taking part in the Polska Éire festival and creating other events for Irish and Polish people to get involved with. For the last two years, the group has gathered at Gorey Library every two weeks to introduce Polish legends to children. 'English speaking children are invited alongside Polish speaking children to listen to the legends of Poland. It's very interactive and we do arts and crafts to do with the legends. We dress up sometimes and make puppets. We have beautiful decorations that we painted,' said Ola. The group have also brought Polish music to Gorey, combining Polish music with traditional Irish music from the area. Among the events, are art exhibitions and screenings of Polish films at Gorey Cinema. On another special occasion, a delegation from Gorey travelled to Poland.

Irish porn star receiving horrific threats since sharing plans for virgin scenes
An Irish porn star has faced terrifying threats and sickening abuse since revealing plans to record sex scenes with male virgins. Meghan O'Neill, 33, from Antrim, is a former Catholic schoolgirl, who was taught by nuns, but now claims she has been treated worse "than a murderer". Meghan, whose brother was killed 12 years ago, spoke out after revealing that she plans to record a film of her having sex with up to 10 men. She said: "People would treat me less than a murderer. They say, 'You're scum of the earth'. They say it because 'you're a sex worker, a porn star'." Meghan - who fans claim is Ireland's biggest female porn star – revealed the abuse is worse online than in her "physical, day-to-day life". She said: "People know what I do and they hate it, they're angry. I am a porn star and I wanted to get into porn since I was a teenager. "It is viewed as shameful. I was brought up Catholic and I was taught by nuns." The mum-of-two said the "school gate" is "fine" – but added: "At the start, it was a shock for everybody. They were like, 'What?' "People did treat me differently at the start, but I think they've just got used to it now. "I'm Meghan, these people have grown up with me. They've known me before, they know me now. They don't care. "It is men on the internet. They have a lot to say. They say, 'I can't wait until your kids commit suicide'. "They say, 'I can't wait to see you getting hurt'. It is constant abuse. They want to attack me because I am a mother. "I share what I've had to deal with because I want the world to be a safer place for women." Meghan said her brother was a "drug addict from very young" and "was in and out of jail" but "had turned his life around" when he was "stabbed to death". She burst onto the porn scene last year and revealed in May 2024 that she was making €11,000 a week through her OnlyFans account. She later left the industry after breaking up with fellow Irish porn star Andy Lee, 35, from Dublin. But she last week revealed in The Irish Mirror that she is planning a return to her X-rated career for a shocking new movie. Meghan is looking for some Irish male virgins, aged 29 and over, to have sex with on camera for their first time. She said: "10 virgins will get to lose their virginity to a porn star. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. "Irish men are more than welcome. It will probably be the majority of Irish men from all over the isle of Ireland. "I am happy to have sex with Irish men. I'm Irish and I love the Irish. I will tour the world after this if it goes well and do the same in different countries." Meghan added: "There are probably more men virgins than we like to believe. I talk to a lot of them daily on my OnlyFans account. Who will be the lucky 10?"

Wexford's Coláiste Abbáin celebrates vibrant school spirit and diverse talents with end-of-year-awards
From first to sixth year, students were recognised for top performances across a wide range of subjects. Among the first years, Charlie Kehoe stood out with awards in History, Science, French, ICT, Visual Art, and Music, while Kelsey Furlong received accolades for English, Irish, and science. In the senior cycle, students such as Lauren Cullen and Conor Foley earned multiple academic honours, with Lauren excelling in maths, chemistry, biology, French, and Irish. The Most Improved Student awards celebrated those who demonstrated exceptional growth. Ian Murphy (1st Year), Aoife Banville (2nd Year), Mathew Mullins (3rd Year), Riain O'Shea (Transition Year), Tiernan O'Brien (5th Year), and Conor Foley (6th Year) were honoured, alongside LCA students Conor Murphy and Sean Barron. The top accolades went to the students who truly embodied excellence throughout the academic year. Emma Farioli Vecchioli was named Junior Cycle Student of the Year, while Philippa Coleman was honoured as Senior Cycle Student of the Year, recognising their exceptional academic records, leadership, and contribution to school life. This year marked a landmark for Coláiste Abbáin's sports teams. The 1st Year football team won the Leinster final, while the Senior Hurling team captured the South Leinster title. The 1st Year soccer team also made headlines, winning the league and narrowly missing out on the Leinster title after a hard-fought final. Standout athletes such as Barry Sweetman, Morgan Nash Colfer, and Ella Fitzpatrick earned Player of the Year titles in football, hurling, and camogie. Erin Walsh also shone across disciplines, receiving awards in athletics and team sports. In the arts, Lexi Rose Blanzy received the Senan Lillis Perpetual Musician of the Year award, while Philippa Coleman was named both MJ Booth Art Student of the Year and Senior Cycle Student of the Year. The school's Junk Kouture entry, Treasured Costs, was designed by Ava Kehoe and modelled by Ciara Czere, impressing judges with its creativity, sustainability, and impact. The Junior Craft Fair winners, Cian Murphy and Leon Ryan also earned recognition for their innovative Christmas wreaths. Prefects and student leaders were also acknowledged, including Head Boy, Milo Farioli Vecchioli and Head Girls, Alyssa Kelly and Lucy Wise. The coveted Ethos Award went to Faye Hynes for embodying the school's values. Ava Kehoe and Alex Sheehan received the Transition Year and LCA Spirit Awards respectively. Top honours included the Senior Sports Person of the Year awarded to Morgan Nash Colfer, and Junior Sports Persons of the Year jointly awarded to Mikaela Kavanagh and John Foley. Historian of the Year went to Eimear Doyle, while Gavin Ryan and James Delaney were named Agricultural Students of the Year. The ceremony also highlighted contributions to school life beyond academics and sport. The STAR Programme acknowledged Traveller students across year groups, and the Meitheal team for 2026 was introduced, reflecting the school's commitment to leadership, inclusion, and support. Coláiste Abbáin's Achievements Day 2025 was 'a true celebration of hard work, talent,' said Mr Dean O'Connor. 'It's our strong school spirit that makes the community proud. We'd like to congratulate all students, staff, and families involved in this year's successes,' he added.
