For Science Week 2025 a few of the classes hosted their own Science Expo in their own classrooms for their classmates. They demonstrated various science experiments which they researched and carried out by themselves or in small groups.
5th Class demonstration for Senior Infants
Ms Dinan's 5th Class had to come up with their own experiment in groups to demonstrate to the class. They decided to invite Senior Infants to come in to see their 'Science Expo'. Senior Infants learned how to make slime, how to create static electricity and see a volcanic eruption along with a lot more very intereting experiments.
4th Class Science Expo
For science week, Ms. Olivia O’Shea’s 4th class hosted their own science fair and presented their own researched experiment to the class. Each child explained what steps they followed and the results of their experiments. A lot of fun and learning took place. We had a volcanic eruption, the chemical reaction between coke and Mentos, inflating a balloon using a chemical reaction and making elephant toothpaste to name but a few. There was plenty of fun, excitement, mess and cleaning up afterwards but the children really enjoyed being scientists for the day.
6th Class Science Expo
Ms. Debbie Moriarty’s 6th class pupils did their own science experiments in class today as part of science week. We had experiments looking at making volcanos, looking at the chemical reaction between coke and mentos to name just a few. Well done to all who took part.
2nd Class Science Expo Mrs. Lawlor’s 2nd class children had to research a Science experiment, and demonstrate it for the class on Thursday. All the children really enjoyed doing these experiments.
