She introduced Mederic Thomas of France who arrived just a few weeks before (pictured on her right) to other students who have been in the community since August.

Susan hosted 14 students at her home so that the students could meet and visit with one another during their long term Secondary School Programme. The girls are staying with host families in Cahir, Cashel or Clonmel and attending school here in Ireland.
