Engineering - Step 3

For step 3 we invited an Engineer into speak to 4th to 6th classes.


We were extremely fortunate to have Mr Paul Darmody of Sapphire Engineering come to visit us today and give a presentation to 4th, 5th & 6th class about engineering. Mr Darmody discussed the different aspects of engineering, where engineering originated from, some of the oldest engineering products to the newest and most well known products. Mr Darmody's presentation was extremely insightful and interesting and the children thoroughly enjoyed the talk...some of the students are certainly aspiring engineers with their wonderful ideas. 

Thanks again Mr Darmody. 


Please see pictures and his wonderful presentation below.
