Google Logo For St. Patrick’s Day

The “Doodle 4 Google” competition to choose the Google logo for St. Patrick’s Day has come to an end. The winner is Evan O’Sullivan Glynn from St. Munchin’s College, with his doodle entitled “My Irish Roots”:

On St.Patrick’s day Irish people around the world celebrate their connection to Ireland “The Emerald Isle”. “My Irish Roots” represents this connection with how shamrocks trace back to their roots in the same way that Irish people throughout the world trace back to Ireland, their Ireland, my Ireland.

The winning logo will be displayed on the Google homepage in the UK, US, Canada, Australia and Ireland on St. Patrick’s Day (17th of March).

The other 3 national finalists were Louise Gilmore from S.N Muire na nGael, Marcela Ponikova from St. Clare’s NS and Orla Gartland from Dominican College.
