This engaging programme allows children to design, build and program their own models, helping to develop important skills such as problem-solving, creativity and teamwork.

The pupils showed great enthusiasm as they explored simple coding concepts and brought their creations to life using motors and sensors. Many thanks to our former pupil, Clodagh for her assistance with this program.

They read and discussed important facts and gained a better understanding of this significant time in Ireland’s past.

Some fourth class pupils then presented their learning at our whole-school assembly, showing great confidence and communication skills. We are very proud of their efforts and engagement.
