Well done to everyone for helping make Space Week such a great success throughout the school. First Year students had a fantastic trip to Armagh Planatarium while Second Years took part in space-themed art and poetry. Our Third Year and T.Y. students had the opportunity to test their knowledge in space-themed quizzes. 
 
Massive thank you to Ms. O' Brien and her 5th Year Physics class for putting together the questions for the quiz.
 
Congratulations to Tadhg Keane (2B) who was the overall winner of the Art Competition.

1st Year Science Trip to Armagh Observatory

The First Years had a very enjoyable and educational trip to Armagh Observatory last week. They took two journeys in the planetarium dome - starting with the visualisation of the Big Bang, the evolution of stars, planets, galaxies, molecules and life itself. They also looked at the constellations they can see in the night sky, eclipses, moon phases and space travel - with a little competition led by their facilitator.
 
They did a marvelous job making rockets, used hydraulic power to propel them across Armagh and recycled the materials after. In the exhibition area, they asked very interesting questions to the facilitators, touched a real meteorite and tried on space helmets.
 
The facilitators and teachers commended the First Years on their excellent behaviour, curiosity and general good company. Thanks to the Science Department for organising such an enjoyable and worthwhile trip.

He talked about business, digital marketing, his time in the USA, his experiences within the GAA and also the hospitality industry and how everything from start to finish has led to the present day and HUH Clothing.
