We were delighted to organise an event for European Maker Week: https://europeanmakerweek.eu/
Ms. Hughes organised workshops in STEM to promote problem solving and computational thinking. We made balloon cars, lollipop stick bridges, newspaper towers and connected the MAKEY MAKEY to our computer to play Super Mario!
  Pam from Limerick IT ran a workshop using Micro:bits.  We really enjoyed the day and learned lots without any books!
