Science Week for Primary Schools
It’s that time of year again and Research Ireland is inviting primary schools to take the leap and get involved in Science Week!
Get ready for an exciting Science Week where we'll dive into the theme of regeneration! This means we’ll be learning about how we can help our planet and ourselves grow and heal in new ways. We’ll explore how to take care of nature, find smarter ways to use materials and energy, and discover cool solutions for health and healing. It’s all about using what we’ve learned in the past to create a brighter future! We’ve planned some fun activities for you to join in and explore the idea of regeneration. Let’s reimagine our world together and celebrate our amazing strengths!
Ways to get involved
