F1 Challenge

2011/12

This is the first year we entered the Senior Catagory. Team PDQ is made up of 5th and Transistion year students who have all been involved in the F1 competition before.

They have submitted a Folio with outlining their team objectives and designs and are waiting to hear if they will progress to the Regional Final.

2011 was the year the Technology Department took ownership of a CNC Router which can be used to manufacture our own F1 cars.

Watch this space to keep up to date with the Team's progress.

2008/09 This was the first year Scoil Mhuire has entered the F1 Technology Challenge. Two teams, named Spitfire and Kugal, submitted a folio outlining their design ideas and marketing plan.

Both teams were successful in reaching the Regional Final held in the Institute of Technology, Blanchardstown on Friday 20th March 2009.

The Regional Final was a positive experience for both teams who had put a great deal of time and effort into preparing for the event. Photos of the event can be seen by clicking HERE.

Team Spitfire must be congratulated on their success in qualifying for the National Final to be held on 28th April at Griffith College, Dublin.

2009/10 In 2009 two new teams progressed to the Regional Final. Team Blackbird and Team Bullet were hoping to learn from and improve on last years success. Unfortunately neither team progressed to the National Finals.

Photos of this years teams can be seen here.
