Take the first STEPS to learning more about Engineering!
Engineers Week 2020 will take place nationwide from 29th February to 6th March 2020, and Castlecomer Discovery Park is delighted to be involved once more.
Engineers Week promotes engineering and the importance of the profession to children in Ireland. In 2019, there were over 850 activities organised in the community. The aim of each event is to positively showcase engineering as a rewarding and creative career choice to children in all communities.
As part of Engineers Week 2020 we are focusing on bringing STEM learning to life with giant Catapult-Building. Using a collection of poles and ropes, small groups work together to engineer and build a working catapult in our beautiful woodland setting. Once constructed, groups will test the success of their catapult by firing a variety of projectiles. A range of engineering problems can be explored and tested.
Special Schools Rates apply – 2-2.5 hours, max group size 35
