We had a very busy week last week celebrating Engineering Week! The boys and girls designed and created some fantastic projects, which showcased lots of different types of engineers. Well done everyone, we definitely have some pupils who will be engineers in the future!! The projects were all displayed in the GP room on Friday to the whole school and to parents.
A huge thank you to Gary Brides who came in on Wednesday who discussed all about his role as a project manager in the development of wind turbines and what that entails. The boys and girls learned so much from Gary’s presentation and got a deep insight into all different aspects to his job as an engineer.
On Thursday, we had a visit from Killian Smith, Brian Smith and Amy from Cleantech Civils, who discussed their different roles as engineers and the different projects and jobs that they undertake for example building bridges. The boys and girls then got to try out using some of their special equipment which they really enjoyed!
