Arklow Community College students attend Chemistry Camp in York University



This summer while most Junior Cert students will have their heads out of the schoolbooks, two students from Arklow Community College will be busy brushing up on their Chemistry at an academic camp in England.

Niamh Cloran-Doyle and Rebecca Lyons have both won school scholarships to a 3 day residential Salters Chemistry Camp, held in the University of York from 13th- 15th August. The girls are really looking forward to spending three days and two nights at the University of York, staying in the University Halls of Residence, and using the laboratories. 

They will carry out new, exciting experiments, and have the chance to delve into areas of chemistry that are perhaps not covered at school. In the evenings, practical work in the labs is put on the back burner, and students will enjoy a variety of social activities like a fun quiz or tenpin bowling.
This is not the first time Arklow Community College students have taken part in Chemistry Camps. Previous scholarship winners for Chemistry Camps in Swansea University and the University of Manchester include Gary Long, Kyle Connolly-Carey and Brian Ormonde- Murphy.
