5th Year Engineering and Physics students from St Brendan's Community School in Birr visited TUS Athlone, for The Engineering Olympics.

Students' teamworking skills were put to the test in a number of different hands-on engineering challenges, such as bridge-building, rocket science, and Lego manufacturing simulations.

Well done to all involved.
