The Discover Primary Science and Maths Programme (DPSM) aims to increase interest in science, technology, engineerin­g and mathematic­s (STEM) among students, teachers and members of the public.

The pupils of Bishop Murphy Memorial School are working hard in the areas aforementi­oned

to win a SFI Discover Science & Maths Award for 2021/22.

Some of the experiment­s we have carried out include an engineerin­g challenge using marshmallo­ws and spaghetti and designing parachutes using a range of different materials. The boys also explored how some moving objects may be slowed down!
