Held in the school's sports hall, the multidenominational event honoured the achievements, growth, and resilience of the Class of 2025, featuring heartfelt speeches, musical performances, and the presentation of special awards highlighting both academic excellence and school spirit.
This year's Female Academic Student of the Year was awarded to Ruby Connolly, with Noah Hayes receiving the title of Male Academic Student of the Year, recognising both students for their outstanding dedication and consistent academic achievement across subjects.
Celebrating the heart and spirit of Coláiste Eoin, Grace Mulhall and Adam Byrne were honoured with the Spirit of the School awards for their positivity, kindness, and meaningful contributions to the school community throughout their time in Coláiste Eoin.
'The school extends its sincere thanks to Mr Darragh Kelly for his thoughtful organisation of the ceremony, to Ms Leeann Cummins for providing beautiful musical accompaniment, and to Ms Mairead Tompkins for coordinating refreshments on the night,' a school spokesperson said.
'The ceremony provided students and families with an opportunity to reflect on shared memories, achievements, and the bonds formed over the past six years. It was a fitting and respectful farewell to a remarkable group of young people as they prepare to embark on the next chapter of their lives.
'Coláiste Eoin wishes the Leaving Certificate Class of 2025 every success and happiness in the years ahead.'
Meanwhile, Coláiste Eoin's transition year students were also honoured at a recent ceremony, where pupils received awards and certs for Junk Kouture, enterprise, achievements, the Future Leaders Programme, Gaisce, Spirit (Cathal Cullen and Lilly Murphy), along with Students of the Year, Molly Rose Burke and Christopher O'Toole.
