Going back to school pays off for Patricia

THE hard work has reaped rewards for Patricia Lynch, who sat the Leaving Cert at the same time as her son Liam.

Patricia, who said she was “delighted” with her results, has been accepted by Trinity College where she plans to pursue social studies.

“I’d like to be a social worker,” said the 42-year-old student and mother of four. “It’s something I’d like to be as I do a lot of voluntary work.”
