We wish our seven daring young scientists the very best of luck as they embark on the adventure of a lifetime tomorrow at the BT Young Scientists Exhibition in the RDS. They will showcase 4 very exciting projects between them with such varied themes as: how old laptop batteries can provide energy in a brown out, A wearable device that can greatly improve the quality of life & mobility of visually impaired people, the use of fish waste products to create plastic, & the detection of micrometeorites in our local environment which can explain the formation of galaxies, using a flatbed scanner!

This is a very proud occasion for PCH; 7 students, 4 projects and all the students involved are in Junior Cycle!

The very best of luck to the seven students and their very dedicated teachers, Mr Toner & Ms Halleran.

Please stay tuned to our social media sites for updates on PCH stands in the BTYSE! The students will be profiled in this week’s Tuam Herald, available on Thursday.
