Science comes to life for Edenderry pupils at W5

EDENDERRY Primary School visited W5 recently as part of Northern Bank Science Counts, an exciting education partnership with W5, Northern Ireland's award-winning interactive discovery centre.

The initiative, now in its fourth year, offers a fun-filled educational experience for children by showing science and maths in action.

Edenderry pupils were treated to a fun maths problem-solving challenge by the educational team from W5 as well as getting the opportunity to explore and enjoy W5’s 190 hands-on exhibits.

Sally Montgomery, Chief Executive of W5, said, " Edenderry Primary School’s visit to W5 is part of the Northern Bank Science Counts programme which is a fantastic partnership and a huge hit with schools.

“Science Counts allows us to reach and include smaller schools who often find it hard to visit us.”

Rhonda Gibson, Northern Bank’s External Relations Manager, said, "Supporting children to see maths at work all around them in everyday life is an important part of our community programme.

“Science Counts makes maths and science fun and relevant for children - bringing the magic of W5 to classrooms across Northern Ireland or enabling pupils to explore maths in action at the discovery centre.”
