TY students were in school early this morning for the day trip to the BT Young Scientist. While there was no shortage of snow to be seen on the way to Dublin, it didn’t impede the trip. As soon as the students arrived at the RDS, the first destination was to find the stands of their classmates in the competition.
550 groups from primary and secondary schools, all over the island of Ireland, were exhibiting their projects. The technology exhibition included stands from 2FM, Met Eireann and Meta. The atmosphere in the RDS was described as inspiring while the highlight for many was seeing the many informative projects from their peers.
As the day-trippers return to Cork, attention now turns to the awards ceremony this evening.
