Science Day
On the 21st of May, Cashel School had their Science Day. Parents came in and situated themselves at different stations (e.g. Electricity, Water, etc.) Pupils were put in to groups and each group went around to all the stations. There was great fun had by all at the Science Day. Both classes were involved in the project. We also went outdoors on a minibeast hunt and then had to identify them We learned that an insects body is divided into three amin parts- the head, thorax and abdomen. Graham Clarke our Green Flag advisor reviewed our Green flag Programme with us and we participated in "Who Wants to be a Millionaire?"- it was great fun!
It was really a very enjoyable and interesing day.
