Great news! Our school have qualified for the  SFI Discover Science and Maths award this year! We are just delighted that our pupils/scientists get this recognition for all their efforts. We have had Science experiments in lots of classes, a Science Fair in our school and a very rigorously researched Science project which Ms McBride's class brought to the RDS for the Science Blast Off.

In addition we have built circuits, parachutes, boat and bridges. The boys have investigated ancient building techniques, studied seedling growth, explored out natural surroundings and made butter! They also participated in Maths trails, a Maths Olympiad and hands on maths activities with IZAK maths.

Our Science Committee, comprised of Mrs. Byrne, Ms McBride and Ms Egan co-ordinated the project and our colleagues and pupils supported it all with great enthusiasm. 

Thanks everyone! Science and Maths are vital for our future. And we are so lucky to have the resources to develop great scientists and mathematicians in our school!
