Using a Planets Resources

by Sean Bikkes

Getting set up

When we first arrive on an extra terristrial planet e.g Mars,

we need to set up by importing items from Earth.

On Mars, plenty of things will be needed;

food, water, shelter, energy and air.

After a while,we will have to produce these things from the

planet's own resources.

Self-sufficiancy

There are so many things on Mars we could harvest and use;

we could collect ice, melt it and filter it to make

drinkable water.

We could also use this water to generate power,

water plants and quench the thirst of livestock.

Plants and animals obviously won't be able

to survive outside, so we could make large

plastic domes to keep the air in and keep the cold out!

Aviva Stadium

Yesterday we went to the Aviva Stadium. We took the bus to Dublin at seven o'clock and arrived at half ten.
First we had a tour of the Aviva Stadium. Our tour guide showed us around the rooms and we watched a mini clip of the demolition and reconstruction of the stadium. Then we explored the stands, the dressing rooms and the press area.I took lots of pictures. After we had finished our tour,the organisers from Show Racism The Red Card announced the results of the projects. We were runners up. We received  a plaque and a blue digital camera. Also we won a raffle prize and accepted a ball signed by Shamrock Rovers. I had a brilliant day at the Aviva Stadium and I hope I can go back soon!

My Trip to the Aviva Stadium.

Yesterday we went to the Aviva Stadium. We had to wake up at 6:20 because the bus was leaving at 7:00. It was a pretty boring two and a half / three hour trip, but we managed to keep ourselves occupied. When we got there we got a tour of the stadium. Then we went into a room which had some entertainment. It was a magician.He was really funny.Then we listened to some speeches and had a Question and Answer session. Following that we had a raffle and we won a football signed by the Shamrock Rovers team. We won runner-up prize! We got a plaque and a digital camera. I had a great day. We stopped at Apple green on the way back home to have lunch.

Our Science Day

14/4/11
Today was our science day.We did loads of amazing experiments for the Junior and Senior Infants and for our parents.We had some help from Eimear and Mary(two of the teachers in our school).
Most of us did different experiments like volcanoes,floating eggs,paper gliders,squishy eggs,non-gravity water,exploding coca-cola,telephones,floating and sinking oranges and hurricane in a bottle.

We all had great fun demonstrating our experiments to all who attended.
You should try some of these experiments at home too!

My Trip to the Aviva Stadium

I reached school at seven o' clock and got on the bus.On the way we stopped in Apple Green for a bit of fresh air .When we got to the Aviva  we were introduced to our tour guide Sam.There was another school with us. We were shown around to lots of rooms but my favourite one was the dressing room.I was amazed with how much was in the dressing room.After that we were shown the pitch and  we were going to go onto it but they were spraying fertilizer on it.Then we went into a huge room where the winners were announced for Show Racism The Red Card. We won an olympus camera and a plaque. We also won a signed football by Shamrock Rovers.IT WAS GREAT COLM

I couldn't beleive my ears when the presenter called "KILCOLGAN EDUCATE TOGETHER"! We all went up for our photograph to be taken. Following the presentation, there was a raffle,where we also won a prize. We won a signed football. On the way home we stopped at Apple Green to have our lunch.
