Science Day 

Science day was held in Moyderwell Primary School on Tuesday the 15^th March. This proved to be very successful day for everyone involved.   It was a culmination of a lot of hard work by all classes and the individuality and creativity of the work produced was extraordinary. It was a wonderful opportunity for the students to show off their work and discuss their science projects. We set up a range of "hands-on", fun investigations in the hall. Each class had an allocated slot. Everyone learnt a lot from talking about their own projects as well as seeing what all the other classes had done! It was evident that the children explored and developed the important skills of working scientifically, investigating, designing and making. The pupils also received a visit from special guests with a lamb and three guinea pigs joining the students for the day.We had many visitors throughout the day who were delighted to see the standard of work in Mercy Moyderwell. The science day showcased students projects such as magnetic cars, eco houses, recycled mini me dolls, moon habitats, rockets, models of the digestive system, erupting volcanoes, sock puppets, samples of bacteria, helicopters, dancing raisins, the solar system, alternative energy sources and a detailed survey on social networking. It was a fantastic day enjoyed by all involved.

BT Young Scientist Exhibition 2011

Moyderwell Mercy Primary has been successful for the last two years in achieving an exhibition stand at the RDS Primary Science Fair at the BT Young Scientist Competition. In January 2011, sixteen 4th to 6th class students exhibited individual projects on 'The Spread of Swine Flu'. This January 2011 fifteen 6th class pupils displayed a joint project on the Catastrophes of Spring 2010.... the Icelandic Volcanic Eruption and the Deepwater-Horizon Explosion /Oil-Spill Disaster in the Gulf of Mexico. We were highly praised by the judges, other students and the general public. Moyderwell brought a trophy back to school on each occasion.

Are you heading for 6th class in the next couple of years? Would you like to be considered for this outing to Dublin?If so....get your skates on you and begin today researching and presenting any science related project...F. Mullins and M. Jones will be co-ordinating another event in Autumn 2011 for the Exhibition of January 2012. See you there!!!!

Official Opening of Moyderwell Gym 11th February 2011

On 11th February we celebrated the official opening of our new school gymnasium. The event was presided over by renowned broadcaster and commentator Mícheál Ó Muircheartaigh, who graciously cut the ribbon for us.

The opening of the brand new facility marks a culmination of years of hard work by staff, board of management and parents of the school. The Gym was officially blessed by his Grace, Bishop of Kerry, Bill Murphy and a short prayer service was also held. This was followed by an exhibition game of basketball with a few brave teachers taking on some far more talented students.
