What a brilliant few days for our Science students and their teachers! Huge congratulations to the entire team on what they have showcased and achieved! A phenomenal 13 projects were selected from St Joseph’s for showcase at this year’s final of the BT Young Scientist and Technology Exhibition in the RDS by students in 2nd, 3rd, TY and 5th Year!

The level of detail and analytical investigation in each of our students’ projects was incredible and we are so proud of you all! Well done to Stephanie who came 3rd place in her category, to Louis who received a Highly Commended and Display award, to Martha who received a Highly Commended award, to Judy, Asha and Aoife who also received a Highly Commended award and to Allison and Emily who received a Display award. The projects covered areas such as AI, dentistry, wind turbines, energy generated by waves, water currents and a peer-to-peer tutoring app and more! Huge well done to all students who submitted projects for entry into this year’s competition - the number is growing and growing each year, highlighting the value placed on this in the school as it is now part of who we are and what we do!

A huge well done and thank you to the teachers in the Science and Computer Science departments in the school for their work and commitment to this and for mentoring, nurturing and supporting the students and their inquisitve minds! We are so proud of all of our fantastic students! The future is bright.
