Quercus Awards Night 2025
On Tuesday 28th October we celebrated our new scholars for 2025/26 at the Quercus Awards Night in the Aula Maxima in UCC. Family and friends of the new Quercus scholars joined us on the night along with some members of staff and our partners, Bank of Ireland.
Quercus Active Citizenship Scholar, Sumaya Mohammed congratulated and welcomed the new scholars on behalf of the current scholars and UCC President, Prof. John O'Halloran, and Maria McKnight from Bank of Ireland presented the Quercus Scholars with their silver acorn pins.
The presentations were followed by a student concerned including all of the Quercus Creative & Performing Arts scholars. We were also very blessed to have Bobby Gardiner, famous Irish accordionist and music teacher of new scholar Amhaoibh O Síocháin Ó Beoláin, join the musicians on stage.
The night was topped up with some light refreshments and mingling.
A huge welcome to all our new scholars.
