Junior Cert Congratulations

It's that time of year again - Junior Cert results!

Education Minister Ruairí Quinn has sent his “warm congratulations” to all this year’s candidates on their results. Now the HSE, through drugs.ie, would like to extend congratulations to all those who sat the exams and hopes they would enjoy their celebrations this evening responsibly.

Even moderate drinking in adolescence has its risks. A young person, unused to the effects of alcohol, may get sick, take unnecessary risks, have an accident, miss out on work, school or sport, or become a burden to their friends. With this in mind, if you are celebrating tonight, please do so carefully and look out for yourself and others.
