Two KH students recently had the exciting opportunity to present their award-winning project at a national showcase event in Dublin.
Self Help Africa hosted a Science for Development Showcase in collaboration with Irish Aid at Iveagh House.
Matthew Johnson and Yung Hei Tsang (Form 5), winners of the Science for Development Award, were invited to present their project, “Solutions to Combat Lead Pollution in Soil and Water in Kabwe, Zambia.” Their work focuses on addressing a serious environmental and public health issue affecting communities in Kabwe.
During the event, the students had the opportunity to speak with a number of distinguished guests, including Niall Tierney, Dr Tony Scott, and Niamh de Loughry. They discussed their research in detail and shared insights into their innovative solutions.
This experience allowed the students to showcase their work on a national stage, while also engaging with leaders in science, education, and international development.
Well done to Matthew and Yung Hei for representing KH with such professionalism and excellence.
