Superhero Science
Some Nenagh College Junior Science students took part in a Zoom event ‘How to build an Iron Man Suit’Â for Science Week, delivered by Dr. Barry Fitzgerald, a Superhero Scientist, a keynote speaker, author and enthusiastic communicator.
The interactive participation and relevant and intriguing questioning from a group of students: Harry Spillet, Séamus Mc Kenzie-Cleary and Ava Delaney earned them books by the author: Secrets of Superhero Science, Secret Science of Santa Claus & How to build an Iron Man Suit. 
Science Week Table Quiz
Our TY students enjoyed a brain teasing and fun table quiz on Friday 13th Nov organised by Ms Duffy’s fifth year Agricultural Science students to celebrate science week. The competition was very strong with only a point separating the top three tables in a nail biting finish with Keeva O’Sullivan, Cara Dalton, Shannon Deane and Tess O’Donovan emerging as the winners. The girls took home a lovely steak dinner hamper each. Our best dressed farmer and farmerette prize went to David Toohey and Aisling Ryan.
 Special thanks to 5th Ag Science students Emma Foley Cahalan, Emma Gleeson and Thomas Coonan for organising and running the table quiz.
