Science Week 'Regeneration' Themed STEM Projects 2024

Our school foyer is currently home to a variety of inspiring STEM Projects which incorporate Science Week Ireland’s theme of Regeneration. CETNS explored the theme of Regeneration and how we can help our planet and ourselves grow and heal in new ways. The decisions we make today will greatly impact future generations. It's time to reimagine the world together and celebrate our amazing strengths.

Thank you to all who have taken part. Each child presented their project to their class. We are really enjoying your wonderful ideas and learning so much.

Here is a small selection of the projects received so far. We will add more photos over the next few days!

The children of CETNS have proposed an impressive variety of ways to address the regeneration of planet earth.

Regeneration at Home projects include: environmentally friendly houses with wind turbines & solar panels for energy, collecting rainwater in water butts, keeping chickens is good for the planet project, conserving electricity, using ‘nature’s filter’ to get clean water project, repurposing cans in a variety of way and an eco house project.

Dressing for Regeneration projects include: reusing clothes to create new clothes and opening a swap shop for clothes!

Regeneration Journey projects include: bikes and electric cars projects. Even a balloon car was constructed, now that would be fun to try!

Reducing Shopping for Regeneration projects include: a swap box for the sharing of toys, a shoe repair shop, a swap shop for clothes and making your own shopping bag!

Eating for Regeneration projects include: growing your own fruit & vegetables, using an aeroponic system for crops. A food to soil composting project is also on display.

Recycling to Regenerate projects include: the importance of correct waste segregation projects, reduce, reuse & recycle projects and also super cool litter picking robots!

Planning for Regeneration projects include: building A rated homes, environmentally friendly features on homes, building houses on raised platforms to allow biodiversity thrive, litter picking robots in the community, marine litter picking boats. A drip irrigation project was made which highlighted that this is the most efficient way to water crops.

Regenerate our natural world projects include:insect hotels, plant lots of pollinator friendly flowers, don't mow, let it grow, Lego Spike coded project that makes a butterfly move from flower to flower and protect animals’ habitats.

This incredible list goes on!!!!!

These inspiring Regeneration STEM projects show us that our future is in safe hands!
