Thursday, the 4th of April saw the finale of the CASE Project undertaken by 180 pupils from St Mary’s BNS and St Louis Girls NS, Monaghan town and Urbleshanny NS, Scotstown. The showcase was superbly facilitated by Combilift in their new state of the art global headquarters and manufacturing facility in Monaghan.
The LEGOWeDo Collaboration initiative introduced the pupils to robotics. Pupils worked collaboratively to create working Lego models featuring motors and sensors. They programmed their models with easy to use coding software. The projects were theme-based, enabling pupils to develop their skills in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics, as well as language and literacy. Parents were invited to come along on the day and witness the culmination of the partnership between children, who before this project last year, had never met before.
