Transition year will certainly be a year that Jonathan Lynn will remember. In November 2009, Jonathan participated in the Irish Junior Science Olympiad in DCU, sitting through a grueling three-hour examination that focused on Biology, Physics and Chemistry and emerged victorious as he secured his place as one of the six students to compete for Ireland at International level in Azerbaijan in December.
Competing in the individual section in The World Junior Science Olympiaad in Azerbaijan was an amazing experience for Jonathan as he mingled with the top science students from around the world. The blend of personalities and culture as well as the experience of the challenge of competition itself was certainly something that he will never forget. Jonathan arrived home from Azerbaijan sporting a bronze medal, which places him in the top 3% in the world in his category. St. Mary's College, particurly the TY group of 09-10, joins with his parents in being extremely proud of him. Congtatulations Jonathan.
