The international sporting stage has a brilliant new star, and she is wearing the green of Team Ireland and the crest of Davitt College.

We are absolutely thrilled to extend our massive congratulations to Junior Cycle student Ana Dobre, who has just returned from an extraordinarily successful campaign at the European Taekwondo Championships in Portugal.

A Stunning Five-Medal Haul on the Continent

Representing her country at this elite level is a monumental achievement in its own right, but Ana went one step further by completely dominating the mat. Facing down the finest martial artists from all corners of Europe, she displayed world-class technique, discipline, and competitive composure.

By the time the tournament drew to a close, Ana had secured an incredible individual haul:

• 🥇 4x European Gold Medals
• 🥉 1x European Bronze Medal

To step onto a European podium five separate times across a single championship event is a testament to the endless hours of sacrifice, early morning training sessions, and fierce determination Ana brings to her sport.

Inspiration for the Whole School Community

The entire student body, staff, and management of Davitt College are incredibly proud of Ana’s international triumph. Her success stands as a shining example of where hard work and self-drive can take you.

We look forward to welcoming Ana back to the corridors this week to celebrate her incredible achievements. Comhghairdeas leat, Ana! 🇮🇪🥋✨
