A college spokesperson
said Michael received his award for "his excellent
contribution to the course throughout his year at
Kildalton. His practical ability and academic
performance together with his positive outlook made
him a very popular winner with both staff and his
fellow students".
"Courses at Kildalton College allow students to
select subject matter which best fits their own home
farm enterprises and Michael is currently working on
a dairy farm and intends to set up his own farm in
the future." |
