Scifest 4 May

4 x Second Years competed at the REGIONAL SCIFEST in Blanchardstown yesterday.  In a competitive field of 70 projects we had two Prize-winners.

Tom Dooley won the ‘Maths in Science’ award for his project titled ‘Binomial Distribution’.

John Huggard came 1^st in the Junior Physical Science category for his project ‘The Future of Fusion’.

The other two projects:

 ‘To determine whether you can accurately determine the temperature of an area by calculating cricket beats’  Harry O’Leary

and

 ‘Why does a cricket ball swing?’        Gavin Hoey

received plenty of positive feedback from the Judges.

I congratulate the four boys and thank Mr Rowsome for his facilitation of this opportunity.
