These students were chosen from a group of highly motivated and talented individuals who have been working hard as part of the school bank team. 

The Bank of Ireland Money Smarts Challenge was an opportunity for young students to learn about managing finances, setting financial goals, and taking control of their financial futures. The challenge also served as a platform for participants to network and build relationships with other like-minded individuals who are passionate about finance and business.
