At Carrickmacross Credit Union we know how important it is to help teach our younger members the value of saving.
It is a life skill that must be encouraged and nurtured from an early age. Here at Carrickmacross Credit Union we have various programmes at both Primary and Secondary School level that we run to try and encouraged this.
Competition entrants are free to express their creativity using a wide variety of media.
The competition requires entrants to draw or paint posters on the theme using pencil, charcoal, pen or ink, felt-tip markers, crayon, pastel, water colours, gouache, acrylics, oils, poster colour or collage.

Opening a children’s saving account is one of most important things a parent can do – and opening a children’s saving account with the credit union can not only contribute to a child’s future, but teaches them important planning, budgeting and money management skills – giving them vital building blocks needed throughout their lives.
Each year at the beginning of October, the credit union’s national Junior Savers campaign aims to raise awareness of the importance of children saving.
The Schools Quiz comprises of three stages. Stage 1 takes place at Credit Union level. Stage 2 is Chapter Level & Stage 3 is the National Final.
The applicant must intend doing a degree, diploma or certificate course in any approved Third Level Institution. Only those commencing their course this year are eligible.
