This year, a group of TY students are representing HRC in the annual F1 in Schools competition. Their team – Team REVolution, aspire to progress to the  National Finals, and with hope The International F1 in Schools Finals!Â
Â
The competition requires each team to design, test, build and race their own miniature Formula 1 car. They also must raise funds to pay for expenses such as team uniforms, travel, and the manufacturing process of the car.Â
Â
The Team is made up of six students: Amy Higgins, Daragh Finn, Emma Kinane, Cormac Delaney, RoisÃn Corcoran, and Odie Melia. The team is run alongside their teacher: Mr. Kilkenny.
Â
The Team have just completed the first stage of the competition which is the regional qualifiers. They had to create a five page proposal which they were judged on, and then, based on their success with the proposal they would qualify for regionals.Â
Â
The team recently received an email from Formula One in Schools Ireland informing them of their qualification to the Regional Finals!Â
