A huge congratulations to first year students at Colaiste Dun an Ri who will participate in the BTYSE (BT Young Scientist and Technology Exhibition) for the first time today.  Students showed great drive and dedication submitting a total of six projects to the exhibition weeks after the school had just opened!  The projects tackle a range of issues including how much washing up liquid you should use, nursing homes Vs living at home, protein in the blood, healthy eating, breast feeding and what animals young people are most afraid of.  What an amazing achievement for both students and their teacher Ms. Lorraine Hickey pictured above as they headed off for the first day of the exhibition.  Pictured are (Left to Right) Ella Sexton, Shanice Meegan, Emily Dickinson, Lucy Fitzsimons, Ava McCaul, Mark Byrne, Evan O’Reilly and Oisín Blake and their teacher Ms. Lorraine Hickey.  Wishing you all the very best of luck and well done to all involved!
