Rockchapel National school had a STEM promotion workshop for 4th, 5th, and 6th class. It had 3 pharmacists doing experiments and promoting their side of science. The 3 were Anita Broderick, Maura Spring and Carmel Collins. The children got to take part in the experiments and were amazed at the results.
