Student leadership is vital for cultivating responsible, confident, and dynamic citizens. At Coláiste Abbáin, we believe in empowering our students to lead, make decisions, and contribute meaningfully to the school community and beyond. Through various leadership roles, such as student council, Meitheal, committees, and extra curricular leadership, students learn to voice their opinions, collaborate, and effect positive change. We encourage student voice by providing platforms for open dialogue, allowing students to shape school policies and initiatives. By fostering leadership skills and promoting active participation, we prepare our students to become thoughtful leaders and engaged citizens, both within our school and beyond.
