Ahead of the Kildare Rose selection night on Sunday 2 June, here are the Lilywhite contestants: Hannah Cusack (left) and Rachel Casey (right) Hannah Cusack – sponsored by Manguard Plus I’m Hannah Cusack and I’m 25 years young. Proudly sponsored by Manguard Plus. Naas, Co Kildare, is where I call home, teaching Spanish and Business to the next generation of superstars.
When I’m not in the classroom, you’ll find me with Droichead Nua Irish Figure Dancing. Recently, I’ve been living the dream with Kildare Irish Figure Dancers. As my friends would say, my famous quote is “I can’t, I have dancing”.
I have also been tipping away at a book all about Kildare Irish dancing through the years. I love camogie and I am hoping to make a return this coming summer. There’s nothing like the goosebumps that the last few seconds before the final whistle brings.
The kettle is always boiling in our house and I believe a cup of tea is the way to everyone’s heart. Remember, life’s short – let’s make it sweet. Rachel Casey – sponsored by Clanard Court Hotel My name is Rachel Casey, I am 25 years old and I’m from Athy.
I am currently working in Quiz clothing, but I am finishing my time there on 13 June after four years. I’m going on to work in an afterschool/creche. I have an older brother who I get on really well with, I have two nieces who I adore – that is where I get the love for wanting to work with children.
I have a passion for baking, I bake and sell cupcak.
