Yesterday Ty's and first years competed in the annual Sci-Fest competition in Tallaght IT in Dublin. It was a great day out and the school came home with five winners! this was a wonderful achievement for the students and the school:) My project on Ithcyothereapy which was originally entered in the young scientist competition was on display for the judges , they came around and asked us lots of questions about it , it went really well I felt! Sadly , it didn't win a prize, but it was really great to see my friends get awards for theirs so its all good.
There was also a number of talks available to us on the day given by lecturers in the college. I went to one about cool chemistry, basically it was a man blowing up stuff and setting things things on fire. It was actually so fun to watch , I really enjoyed it! I also went to a talk on fighting crime with science. This was so interesting and was all about how criminals get convicted from small traces of DNA evidence left behind at a crime scene.
Overall It was a great day out :) Thabks to the science teachers for organising it !
