Moyvore NS team to compete in televised digital skills final

A local primary school will compete against a Leitrim school in the televised final of Ireland’s first national digital skills competition on Thursday, June 16 on RTÉ2.

‘Ireland’s Future is MINE’ digital skills competition is delivered through a collaboration between Microsoft Ireland and RTÉjr which will see Moyvore Primary School and St Hugh's National Primary School in Leitrim battle it out for first place.

Launched in September 2021, the 'Ireland's Future is MINE' digital skills competition challenged primary school students to use Minecraft: Education Edition to think creatively, collaborate, problem-solve and shape Ireland’s sustainable future.

Of 130 participants, Moyvore Primary School and St Hugh’s National Primary School will compete in the final phase of the digital skills challenge. The winner will receive the grand prize of laptops for the classroom plus a charging trolley for their school.
