Kinsale schoolgirls compete with Malala and the Obamas as Time Magazine’s Most Influential Teens of the Year

Ciara Judge, 16, Emer Hickey, 17, and Sophie Healy-Thow, 17, are ranked alongside Will Smith’s son Jaden, US President Barack Obama’s daughters Sasha and Malia, and Malala Yousafzai, who received the Nobel Peace Prize last week.
Ciara and Sophie said the announcement was “insane” and came as a complete surprise. The magazine’s readers will vote for the eventual winner.
