Hazelwood College Excitement for Science Week 2011!
Science Week Ireland 2011 was celebrated at Hazelwood with the Primary School’s Science Quiz on Thursday night, November 17th. Local primary schools were invited to attend this exciting event to promote Science Week. It was wonderful to welcome all of the primary school pupils, teachers, parents and friends who attended on the night.
Most appreciative thanks must be extended to our generous sponsors, who helped in making this a superb event. Thank you to Clarke’s Books, Munster Business Equipment of Mallow, Moran’s Clothing and Footwear of Charleville and Fitzsimon’s Printers.
During ten rounds of questioning all of the primary pupils thoroughly impressed us with their teamwork and knowledge. Spectacular lucky dip spot prizes and tasty refreshments were very popular among the eager pupils at the half time break. As the end of the quiz came close, excitement was high as the top three placed teams became apparent. Congratulations to Killoughteen National School who were overall winners, with Dromina coming in second place and Gael Scoil O’ Doghair in third place. Thank you and well done to all the teams from Raheenagh, Dromina, Broadford, Feenagh, Tullylease, Ballingarry, Freemount, Killoughteen National Schools and Gaelscoil O Doghair who took part on the night and we look forward to seeing you next year!
