There needs to be far more educational events like this organised for children to take them off devices and expand their minds from a young age.
Delighted to see an Irish language event being hosted. The Celts connection fitted very well with our 4th class.
I enjoyed the Winter School as it made complex topics accessible to a layperson.
Sunny day, lots of wildlife, excellent memories that we wouldn’t afford otherwise.
I learned a lot about cyber security. I learned that cyber security is a lot more interesting than it sounds.
I thoroughly enjoyed it and the content was very interesting and full of humour. Thank you.
RBSS is a highlight in our year. Wouldn’t miss it.
I really enjoyed the visit to Waterford University as part of the STEM program and am hoping to go to third-level education.
