National “Scratch” Coding Competition 2025

23rd May 2025

The National “Scratch” coding competition took place in the University of Limerick on May 21st and Scoil San Nioclás had a representative in the all Ireland final. Thomas Miller’s project ‘Space Invaders 2.0’ was selected out of 700 participants to be part of 30 in the final in UL. Thomas prepared a presentation for the judges on Wednesday and they were very impressed both with the project and with the presentation. Thomas won the judges award in the 5th/6th Class Category of the competition. It was the first time Scoil San Nioclás has entered the competition, and Thomas’ success will no doubt inspire other pupils to compete next year. Congratulations Thomas.
