Course Description

Science sparks curiosity about the natural world, encouraging exploration and innovation.

Our “STEAM & Travel” travelling programme allow students to gain a foundational understanding of biology, physics, and earth sciences, fostering critical thinking and scientific literacy.

During the first week in Dublin these are some of the topics that will be explored:

• • • Engineering Basics: Materials, load, structure, and describing objects
    • Green Energy: Solar, wind, energy transfer, cause & effect
    • The Science of Water: Filteration, states of matter
    • Simple Machines: Levers,pulleys, motion
    • Design & Architecture: Geometry measurement
      

What You’ll Learn?

• Students will become young engineers by designing and building their own strong and creative structures, and confidently describe why one design is stronger or taller than another
• Students will explore the power of the sun and wind by creating mini energy models, explaining how energy moves, and using clear sequencing words to show each step
• Students will become water scientists by building a working filter, discovering how to clean water, and explaining their process in simple, step-by-step language.
• Students will be able to construct a simple catapult and explain how it works by predicting the motion of objects.
• Students will be able to model a sustainable classroom or shelter and present their design choices clearly to others.
• All our summer camps culminate with our Southern & Western Ireland programme to combine the possibility of exploring the country, with activities catered to individual interests. The last 7 days are the perfect combination of travel, lessons, and sightseeing. The students will stay in Waterford, Cork, and Ennis/Limerick/Galway, visiting the most interesting places along the route and in each town, after having enjoyed their stay in Dublin.
