Today we had a very exciting visit in the Junior Classroom! Fergal, one of the construction workers building our new classroom, came in to talk to the children about the site! He taught us about safety on the site, why hard hats are different colours, different people you would see on the construction site, safe passes, and showed us some of the equipment you need to to wear as a builder, such as hard hats, high-vis jackets, ear muffs, goggles etc. The boys and girls all got to ask a question at the end and there were some excellent ones! Toby asked if he would have to wear goggles as well as his glasses on the building site, Izzac wanted to know more about jigsaws, Alfred wanted to know how fast could a digger go...well done everybody on your brilliant questions!
Fergal also brought in a high-vis for all of the children and some sweets! We're going to use the high-vis jackets for our Aistear construction site! Thank you so much! :)
