Third class had a visit from Joe, a Civil Engineer from Dublin City Council for Engineer Week 2015.
Joe came to our class one Friday morning and told us all about the different types of engineering – Chemical, Electrical, Mechanical and Civil.
We looked at water treatment plants, robots, airplanes, bridges and much more! One of the things we really loved were the pictures of the wind farms.
Joe told us lots of fun facts about Engineering. Did you know that when Engineers are designing bridges, they leave a little tunnel with bait for badgers to pass through so that they don’t have to cross a busy road? How kind!
When Joe had told us all about Engineering, we figured out how many Engineers it would take to make a cup of tea!
We loved our visit from Joe!
