Join us for Mad Scientist Weekend Saturday and Sunday, July 14th and 15th in the park! Old Cork Waterworks Experience, Tyndall Institute, Learn it - Inspiring the Creators of Tomorrow, and APC Microbiome Institute, will be joining our own 'mad scientists' for a fun weekend of science!
Experts from the Learn it LEGO® Education Workshops will be present to demonstrate their latest technologies and will provide participants with a fun and informative hands-on opportunity.
Fota's Education Team will be there to introduce your children to the magic of science and will provide them with opportunities to explore the wonders of water, light, and magnetism, among others!
The Ostrich doesn't bury its heads in sand! The myth originates from the fact that males dig large, deep nests and while they are turning theit eggs with their beak, it can appear that their heads are buried in the sand from distance.
