Discover DCU is an initiative of DCU’s Access Programme targeting Fifth Year students. It takes the form of a workshop for students intending to take at least two honours subjects for their Leaving Certificate examination. The aim of the workshop is to give information, to allow students to explore their fears, anxieties and expectations about third level and to offer guidance and support about studying at DCU. The programme works with a cluster of three schools. The first workshop took place on 17th October and our school was asked to participate. The following fifth years represented the school on the day: Malvina Grondzewska, Kate Lawlor, Siobhan Duffy, Niamh Mangan, Vanessa Boland, Lauren Kearns, Moira Purvis, Leah Connolly, Lauren Brady and Lauren Hale.
