Boylan Award, BRM Student of the Year 2025
The Boylan Award for B.Rel.Ed. Music Student of the Year 2025 was presented following the recent graduation of the B.Rel.Ed. Class of 2025. The award is given annually in memory of Fr David Boylan, by his family, to a Music student who has made an outstanding academic and cultural contribution throughout their studies.
This year, the award was presented to Ella Ní Mhaille. Ella’s academic excellence was also recognised through her inclusion on the Dean’s Honours List, which celebrates graduates who have achieved exceptional academic results, placing them in the top 5% of their class.
Congratulations to Ella, and to all our students who graduated recently.
