    This is not really applicable for our many Corkonians in this forum.

    Is anyone else's school submitting a team for the Annual Eureka Junior Science Quiz this year? Basically a team of 3 people are entered by 25 schools to compete in a science quiz.

    It's in Belvedere College on Wednesday 21st April at 2.30 - 4.30pm and teams have to be submitted by a teacher.

    We're doing it in our school so I'm entering for the trails to pick the 3 people. It's a chance to miss class (even if I don't make it through the trails so why not? :D

    Yeah, it sounds like it would be fun (depending on who you're with). Shame there isn't one in Cork.

    The school pays 10 euro to enter the team, so the only potential cost would be possibly a train ticket.

    There's nothing wrong with you're spelling of "wouldn't"?

    It says on the application form:
    1st €40 per team member
    2nd €30 per team member
    3rd €20 per team member
    4th €20 per team member
    5th €20 per team member

    I would assume that the prizes go to the school but I don't know.

    EDIT: Actually, now that I look at it, it says per student rather than just giving a total sum so maybe it goes to the students. I don't know.
