Paralympian Winner Jason Smyth Visit – Paralympics 2024

Paralympics 2024

As part of the promotion of the Paralympics, Paris 2024, the French embassy Educational Attaché kindly organised a visit from Jason Smyth, Ireland’s most successful Paralympian winner of the 100m Gold medal in Beijing 2008, London 2012, Rio de Janeiro 2016 and Tokyo 2020. He also won the 200m in Beijing and London.

He spoke to our 5th Year Leaving Certificate P.E. class and shared his insight on what it takes to be successful in any field. It was an inspirational talk and we thank Jason for joining us.

We thank Mr Vanstone, Mr O’Shea, Ms Le Cleach (French embassy) for their organisation of the opportunity.
