Text
I extend hearty congratulations to the players and management team of St Pat's College Maghera, who, yesterday in Croke Park, won the Hogan Cup for the sixth time in the school's history, which is a fantastic achievement. I congratulate the entire staff and all the pupils of St Pat's, which takes students from south Derry and beyond, on such a well-deserved achievement. They will rightly enjoy their celebrations now.
