TY Thursday Highlights
Two really enjoyable hours yesterday with Footie and WeDrum Ireland.
Classes will swap activities for this Thursday coming (ie if you took part in Zorbing yesterday you will be taking the drumming workshop next week and vice versa).
UCD Engineering & Architecture
with Prof Francesco Pilla
WeCount Workshop on City Congestion & Air Pollution
1:35 - 3:35pm, 19 Nov, RDS
I'm very happy to report that our sensors have arrived!
"The concept is simple: with a sensor in combination with a low-cost computer and software, anyone can count the traffic in his or her street. And with this measurement data, an individual citizen or a group of citizens can contact the local or regional government.
The WeCount project will carry out five different pilot projects at the European level, each with 200 to 250 traffic counters. The aim is to quantify local road transport, produce scientific knowledge in the field of mobility and environmental pollution, and devise informed solutions to tackle various road transport challenges." 🤓
The following are taking part in the workshop (you will have an opportunity to take part in another "active" activity at a later date too so don't worry about missing Zorbing/Drumming!):

TY Hoodies
€864 Raised for Beirut Explosion Appeal
Thanks again to all those who supported the Beirut Explosion Appeal over 2 weeks I'm happy to say that we raised €864 in profits from the sale of our new TY Hoodie.
We'll be taking delivery of our Hoodies shortly.
If, for any reason, you still did not sign up for a hoodie and you'd like to - please drop in to the TYC Office and I can arrange for one (although it may be delivered a little later than the first batch).
The Ember Leadership Programme
Congratulations to our Ember Leaders!
Ember is a Faith Leadership Programme that has been offered in the Dublin Diocese that equips TYs leadership skills to enable positive change throughout the school and beyond! Well done gents:)
Thanks to Ms Doherty, Mr Kearney and Ms Monaghan for their facilitation.
