Congratulations to our Fifth Class Larriers who became the first pupils from this school to participate in the Young Scientist Exhibition with their project 'It's getting Hot in Here!'The boys noted ''This was the first year that St. Laurence O’Tooles C.B.S. entered the BT Young Scientist Awards and we were delighted that our project, ‘It’s Getting Hot in Here’ was one of the few chosen to display at the main event.The aim of our project was to investigate global warming and the effect that it is having on the world. Over the course of three months we learned about the Greenhouse Effect and the consequences this is having on the polar bear. We chose this topic because our school is currently working towards our third green flag.
We carried out an experiment to see how polluted the air is around Seville Place. The results weren’t pretty!We’re pleased to say though, that after investigating how the students and staff commute to school, that we are not adding to the problem of air pollution. An impressive 70 out of 86 people surveyed either walk or cycle to school!''
