Well done to Christopher Carew on winning a category award at the BT Young Scientist Competition. Christopher from ‪#‎Mountrath‬ Community School won for his study of ‘Asthma Control: Laps or Lengths, which matter most?’

Christopher looked at the sports of swimming, football and basketball over a six-week time frame. Christopher found that swimming had the best effect on participants’ asthma after different exercises, sprint work, games and aerobic workouts. For more details on Christopher’s work click here for the Silicon Republic report.
