We celebrated Space Week this year from Monday 4th – Friday 8th October 2021. The children in 1st/2nd Class and 5th/6th Class learned all about the famous astronaut Neil Armstrong, made papier maiche planets and speculated on the essential and non essential items that may be needed to bring on a rocket to travel to Space. The children in Junior/Senior infants explored Space through Aistear, and thoroughly enjoyed their adventure to the moon and back! 3rd/4th Class learned all about the Solar System and participated in many experiments to further develop their understanding of the positional relationship of planets and the orbiting process.
