STEM activity from Primary Sparks

17th Jun 2026

Two STEM ambassadors from Armagh Planetarium came to visit P5/6 to carry out an experiment using magnets. The children were able to feel a real meteorite, discover the power of magnets and use magnetic forces to complete their own space challenge. They then had to create an invention that uses magnets. Some interesting and useful inventions indeed! Well done everyone!
