We were absolutely delighted to receive the news that were are the West/North West Regional winners of the Abbvie STEM prize 2024. We welcomed the team from Abbvie to our school yesterday and they delivered the wonderful news. They judges were blown away by our amazing project “The Deflector Collector”. We worked on the project with Mr Fallon in Term 2. It is an invention that aims to defect and collect rubbish from our rivers/waterways to reduced litter and pollution entering the ocean. We look forward to welcoming Scentist Phil in September for a science workshop as part of the prize. Thank you Abbvie for giving us this wonderful opportunity. We look forward to seeing ourselves in The Mayo News, The Connaught Telegraph and The Irish Times. Visit the gallery for more photos from the day and of our project in an earlier post.
