Completing my Leaving Certificate Applied in Youthreach Ballinrobe was an amazing journey filled with fond memories of fun days out and lasting friendships. Since finishing in Youthreach I have completed a level 5 QQI course in pre-nursing studies and am now going into my 3rd year of Social Care in GMIT Castlebar. Youthreach gave me the confidence, motivation and skills to get to where I am today as I continue pursuing my goals. As a person who did not enjoy mainstream secondary school Youthreach was the perfect option for me, I would highly recommend Youthreach to anyone who feels that mainstream education is not for them.
