Mr McCartan’s class visited the Ulster Transport Museum in Cultra today. This was great timing as the class have just started to learn all about ‘Transport’ as their new World Around Us topic. 

The children explored all modes of transport, new and old, learning about trains, trams, the Titanic and planes. During the tour the class were given the opportunity to go around the different parts of the museum; the DeLorean from the famous ‘Back to the Future’ movies being a huge hit all round. The class were also very interested to see a penny farthing in real life after learning about it earlier in the week. 

A great and informative day was had by all. A super way to arouse curiosity at the start of a new topic!
