First years Hollie Nolan, Molly O’ Neill, Lily Kenny-Scott, Grace Brady and Kate O Callaghan produced and presented a stunning business project to ten high profile business judges to win the Junior Category Dublin Enterprise Final Award. Over 1,500 students from across Dublin entered. 

 
Their unique product and generation idea wowed the judges and all five were excellent in a group participation project. They sold their business plan in a manner that befitted seasoned entrepreneurs! Their project, attitude and professionalism epitomised the core work ethic of Holy Faith students and their teacher Mr O’Callaghan couldn’t be more proud of them. 
 
‘Helmet Hair’ - the unique helmet that will protect and give comfort to all sports people who have long hair. The business idea is currently being patented as a genuine business project and product.
 
They will now represent Dublin in the National Final in Croke Park.
 
Congratulations girls!
