A poster designed by a County Roscommon student has won top prize in the All-Ireland Schools' Media Competition.
Ruth Dennigan from Mercy College Roscommon won the prize in the competition organised by the Columban Missionaries.
Ruth was awarded first place for her poster titled “Ar Scáth A Chéile A Mhaireann na Daoine.”
Her entry responded to the theme “Becoming a refugee is never a choice but how we respond is.”
Students from schools across Ireland submitted entries to the competition, which was promoted through The Far East magazine.
Ruth’s thoughtful and creative work stood out among the many submissions.
As the overall winner, she will receive a €300 prize and will be presented with a commemorative plaque by a representative of the Columban Missionaries in the coming weeks.
