Date published:
The Greenmount Association is delighted to announce that Lisa Burrows has been elected as its new President at the most recent committee meeting.
The Greenmount Association exists to bring together students who studied at the college and former staff. The committee aims to organise opportunities to stay connected and celebrate the strong bonds formed through agricultural and horticultural education at Greenmount.
Lisa, originally from Ballynahinch, now lives near Tandragee. Lisa studied at the campus as part of her BSc (Hons) Degree in Agriculture Technology course, which is offered in partnership with Queen’s University Belfast. Following her graduation in 2021, Lisa progressed onto the postgraduate Master’s programme in Business for Agri-Food and Rural Enterprise delivered by CAFRE. Lisa is employed in the agri-food sector, working with ABP-Linden as a Livestock Officer since 2022.
Speaking about her new role, Lisa said: “I’m honoured to take on the role of President and look forward to engaging with members of the Association. I would encourage students, past and present, to get involved in the events we have planned and help keep the Greenmount spirit alive.”
The Association hosts annual events including a 40-year reunion, which gives former students the chance to reconnect and see how the college has evolved over the decades. Members are encouraged to keep an eye on social media and the press in the weeks and months ahead for details of upcoming events.
