The Melon team would like to share with its community the wonderful story of the pupils of Gortskehy National School. The Principal of this local primary school in Ireland runs a voluntary computer sciences course for parents every winter. This year, he decided to use the Melon Fund Manager competition in order to familiarize the parents and their children to cryptocurrencies. What a brilliant idea!

Students together with their parents managed decentralized and technology regulated funds using the test-net Melon protocol. Two of their funds managed to make it to the top 100 out of +700 funds!

We can only admire and support the forward-thinking and solid education those students receive.

At the end of the competition, we were thrilled and amazed to receive a video from the class discussing their learning experience around money, blockchain and cryptocurrencies… Just check it out, it’s mind-blowing!
