Kearney from Kildare

This is Edel Kearney who has been chosen as the 2010 Kildare Rose.

Her reaction?

""I’ve always been a great follower of the Rose of Tralee. I entered the Derby Queen competition in the Curragh last June and I was lucky enough to win that and they sponsored me in the Rose of Tralee,” explained Edel, who sang Eleanor McEvoy’s version of Caledonia as her party piece on the night.


"We had the interview in the morning they were asking me a lot about my education and my job,” said Edel, who teaches 23 junior infant boys and girls. “The students were delighted I was showing them pictures this morning. They said I looked like a princess.”"

All this, and more, from the Kildare Nationalist.
