It was a very busy week for Michaela. On Thursday night, accompanied by Ms Madden, Ms Collins and her mum, she attended the Regional Divisional Garda Youth Awards in Galway where she was presented with a certificate of Merit.

On Saturday she was back in Dublin again at an award ceremony for the National Technovation Competition. This was a National Competition where students had to create and code an app,  along with creating a financial and business plan. Michaela was placed fourth on this competition. She also placed second in their Science Selfie Competition
