Best of luck to our two Presentation TY students who are vying for the top prize in the BD STEM Stars competition.

This competition aims to promote participation in STEM subjects and demonstrate how they can be applied to solving real-life health issues, with participating schools submitting projects based on concepts that seek to tackle unmet health issues.

Our students, Anna Furno and Áine Devitt, have entered a project based on developing an app to facilitate online reservations for public transport for people who have accessibility needs.

The final of the competition will take place on Thursday March 30.

Best wishes to the girls and their teacher, Ms Dearbhla Neville.
