The children in 5th Class have been working hard on a Design and Make project for the last few weeks.
After learning about the eco-village in Cloughjordan, the children drew up plans to build their own eco-houses. Their houses included renewable energy sources such as solar panels, green spaces with plants, vegetable gardens and compost bins and rainwater collection systems to conserve water.
The children worked in small groups to build their houses using recyclable materials. They displayed wonderful teamwork throughout the project!
Here are their finished eco-houses!
