Sherkin students have their say in picking presidency logo

ISOLATED island children had their say in the selection of a logo for Ireland’s forthcoming term of the EU Presidency.

The school on Sherkin Island was presented with a prize by the Taoiseach Mr Ahern and Tánaiste Ms Harney for its participation in the logo selection process.

The West Cork students joined thousands voting on a department website for the one they liked best. All the schools and colleges who voted for the winning design were entered in a draw which the Sherkin Island school won.
