Young Scientists!

Last Friday we went on a trip to the BT Young Scientist Exhibition.
Everyone in Transition Year in St.Wolstans thought up a project in groups of two and three. Unfortunately, the group I was in didn't get accepted into the competition but still we're entering the Sci Fest competition in a few months!
A couple of groups from our year did get accepted into the competition though. Isabelle, Niamh and Elaina were one of the groups who were accepted. They had an amazing project about surfing. They planned to make an app for ipod and iphone which would show you places around Ireland for surfing, how to get the best surfboard, when to catch the best waves and so much more.
We had a great day in the RDS where the exhibition was being held. There were so many interesting projects from around Ireland. One project from Cork showed what type of eyes you have and what your eyes say about you.
I also went to the BT Young Scientist on Saturday. The winners had been announced the night before so it was great to see the winning projects. Well done to everyone who took part! They all put so much work in!
Hopefully the Sci Fest competition will be as much :)
