Cork ETB Newsletter June 2016 (Volume III)
Cork ETB Newsletter June 2016 (Volume III) CHIEF EXECUTIVE’S WELCOME I am delighted to welcome you all to the final edition of the Cork ETB Newsletter for the 2015/2016 academic year. As always, at this time of year, our focus is on our students and learners who are sitting examinations and undergoing assessments during the months of May and June. Many of our students are also making important decisions about how they will progress their education and learning, start or change their careers, or prepare for another year of study in their current school, centre or college. We are proud that, for many of our students and learners, progression will mean enrolling in or returning to one of Cork ETB’s Further Education colleges, centres or services, and we look forward to welcoming them in September. In the meantime, I wish each of our students and learners every success in the weeks ahead, and hope that their hard work and dedication over the past year is rewarded. Mise le meas TERENCE MACSWINEY COMMUNITY COLLEGE Terence MacSwiney Students perform with U2’s ‘The Edge’ at Sistine Chapel A choir of seven Music Generation Young Ambassadors, including two young singers from Terence MacSwiney Community College, joined U2 guitarist The Edge in making history as they performed live at the Sistine Chapel, Rome, on Saturday, 30th April as part of a conference on regenerative medicine, Cellular Horizons.

Music Generation Students Claudia Sheehan and Nicole Alcock were part of a seven person choir who performed backing vocals to The Edge’s performance on acoustic guitar and vocals, including a cover of Leonard Cohen’s If It Be Your Will as well as versions of U2 songs Yahweh, Ordinary Love and Walk On. -
