Nine vie for Byrne award
The John Byrne Award is an annual competition which asks sixth-year pupils to “show the world what’s important to you”. It then challenges them to express these values through a painting, a poem, a play, or any other creative project.
This year’s stimulus is the Proclaimers song, Letter From America.
