Killorglin Community College has been selected as one of three Irish winners in the Euroscola competition, Radio Kerry reported. The Kerry secondary school will send 22 students to visit the European Parliament in Strasbourg. [1]

Radio Kerry reported that the educational initiative allows participating students to experience life as a Member of the European Parliament for a day. The Irish students will travel to the assembly alongside peers from across Europe. [1]

Strasbourg is a city whose history includes shifts between French and German control since 1681, including periods under the German Empire and Nazi occupation. Its central Grande Île historic district contains the Strasbourg Cathedral, which was completed in 1439. [4]

As FTMQ News reported earlier, educational institutions in the region have also engaged in civic projects. Schools in Kerry, including Colaiste Gleann Li and St Mary's CBS The Green in Tralee, recently took part in the nationwide Gum Litter Taskforce roadshow to encourage proper waste disposal. [6]
