Science Week
Congratulations to everyone who participated in Science Week this week.
We had a fantastic turnout for the lunchtime activities where students designed 3D structures out of marshmallows and built cup towers using string. We also had hundreds of entries into our “Guess the Element” challenge over the four days.
Well done to all our winners who received a €5 voucher for the school canteen!
