Beatrice Mealy, Presentation Convent National School, Castlecomer, Co. Kilkenny. Winner - Senior Section.
The winning senior entry by Beatrice Mealy of Presentation Convent, Castlecomer, whose topic was Fonsie Mealy Auctioneers. Beatrice skilfully traced the family business from her great-grandfather’s time to the present day. Her attention to detail was impressive, from special pieces that came up for auction over time, such as items belonging to the Yeats family, to the venue for the auctions – an art deco former cinema.
