Millstreet’s Superbly Uplifting Success at BTYSTE 2025

While it’s a great privilege to be chosen to compete in BTYSTE 2025 it is truly a further bonus to be chosen among the winners.  We thank Pól Ó Síodhcháin for sharing the following statement and images relating to the wonderful success for Millstreet Community School this Friday evening (10th Jan. 2025) at the RDS.  Pól states:  “We are immensely proud of Saoirse, Anna & Méabh! What a fantastic achievement when you think of 2,000 entries of which just over 500 reach the RDS, to be coming back to Millstreet with 3rd Place is just brilliant. It is a tremendous end to what was a difficult week for many people locally and we are thrilled to have pnce again represented our area so well! I want to thank Millstreet Community Council for their generous support of our participation in BTYSTE over many years. To our three teachers who made the trip to Dublin with the students, Ms Lyons, Ms O’Looney & Mr Guerin, we say a huge míle buíochas. Our teachers in MCS are so committed to our students, it is a privilege to be a part of that. Thanks also to Daniel’s father for travelling to Dublin! They joined the train in Banteer on Wednesday morning. Marion Buckley, one of our wonderful Clerical Officers, ensured that Ms Lyons would make the train on Wednesday morning by giving her a bed on Tuesday night. That sums up MCS…the Irish word ‘Meitheal’ is such a perfect description of what we have in the school between all Staff, Students and Parents/Guardians. We will celebrate this in the school on Monday and I can’t wait to do so! Well done to Daniel, Kate and Evelyn on their excellent work and presentations in the RDS too. We have such a proud tradition in this competition over very many years, it was wonderful to have three projects make it through to Dublin this year. Comhghairdeachas leo go léir!

Anna, Méabh and Saoirse got 3rd place in the intermediate category award for biological & ecological sciences 🎉🥳

Looking for a Place to Rent

I am Anastasia, a working Ukrainian woman, looking for a place to rent in Millstreet for myself and my son.

I work at Beauty Lab Millstreet and many people know me, and I know your nails 😁.

Of course, the best option for me is Millstreet or the nearest towns. Since my son studies in Millstreet and I work here. But I understand that it is not easy!

Therefore, I will be glad to any offers.

I will provide all the necessary information about myself if necessary. I also speak English, so I can communicate easily.
