Curious Minds Science Week Show 2024

In 2024 Research Ireland invited primary schools to take the leap and get involved in Science Week! 

We dove into the theme of regeneration and learned about how we can help our planet and ourselves grow and heal in new ways. We explored 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 have 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!
