STEAM

Both fifth classes are currently involved in a 10 week programme with STEAM in conjunction with Teleflex, Athlone.

STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Maths. Its mission is to inspire children to love STEAM subjects for the future! Pupils really love the hands-on programme, and their interaction with scientists and engineers opens up a whole new world of opportunities for them. It greatly encourages the children and young people to consider STEM careers and to progress to second and third-level education. The programme is an investment in the future as it gives each child, regardless of their ability, an equal opportunity to participate, question & offer opinions.
