Engineers Week!

The girls in sixth class celebrated Engineers Week this week by attending the library for a talk by Offaly County Council Engineers. 

We learned all about the different types of engineers there are and all about the important work they do!

The girls got to be engineers themselves and worked in groups to make a bridge  – using only paper and paper clips!

Take a look at the pictures below to see our budding engineers of the future and their bridge designs!

    

A big thank you to Paul McLoughlin our speaker – we thoroughly enjoyed our visit!
