"Carmel and I visited the robot display which was very cool and interesting. We visited some of the stands of other schools that took part and were really intrigued by some of their experiments." Fiona Maguire (3rd Year)
"The Young Scientist was very interesting. I saw exhibitors of all sorts. I got to hold a giant Madagascaran Hissing Cockroach and touch a taxidermy badger. I also saw interesting studies done by students about how music affects dogs and study, how we can alter the rate at which plants grow." Andrew Enright (3rd Year)
"The best thing I saw was the fighting robots because it was really interesting and funny." Dana Tsafriri (1st Year)
"The best thing I saw was the 3D show. You could look at the stars." Gil Aharonovich (1st Year)
