After School Courses for TY Students

Transition Year
Some incoming TY students may be interested in either of these after school courses taking place in St.Marys Secondary School.
Chinese for Beginners - Starts Monday 5th September from 4:15pm to 5:15pm
Chess for Beginners (or those who dabbled before!) - Starts Tuesday 6th September from 4:15pm to 5:15pm.
These courses will take place in St Mary's College for 13 weeks. Please note there Chinese will not be run on October 3rd as the school is closed for the day & there will be no classes during midterm as you'd expect.
The cost for the course is €80 & can be paid using the easy payments link below;
pay.easypaymentsplus.com/feepay1v2.aspx?id=916
The idea is to help students with their personal skill/recreational pursuit for Gaisce, hence the 13 weeks but they can do it purely as a hobby either.
If anyone has trouble registering, please email nightclasses@smcn.ie

Royal Society of Chemistry Schools' Analyst Competition

Congratulations to Muhib Aakil, Abdullah Abbasi, Lorcan Duffy and Luca Suvac who won the in-school leg of the competition! (All 6th Year Chemistry students.)
We were delighted to run the Analyst Competition here in Naas CBS again this year. The competitors spent over three hours completing a number of analytical tasks to solve real life questions in the school chemistry laboratory. The students had to use some of the skills they learned in class as well as analyse data and problem-solve to come up with their final answers.
Muhib, Abdullah, Lorcan and Luca's data set and answers are now put forward to a Republic of Ireland competition. We're certain they will do well. We took a few minutes out of the competition to enjoy some pizza too! Photos and videos are available to view though the following link:

We're looking forward to running the competition in the school again next year. Look out for the information posted in the school next April/May.
