Schools: Online activities & Outreach
Covid-19 Restrictions
We are currently closed to the public due to Covid-19. Even when restrictions are lifted, we do understand that school tours will not be taking place for a while.
So in the meantime…
PLAY
Take a look at our ‘PLAY’ section for some ideas for pairs or pods to do in the classroom or individually at home. Try our Minifigure Hunt, which uses co-ordinates and gives a brief history of some of Ireland’s famous people. You will also find colouring in sheets, jigsaws and a tricky Escape Room activity, for 5th and 6th Class age students.
LEARN
We also have online activities for Science and Maths Week from 2020. Engineers Week tasks and challenges are coming soon!


Below are some instructions and slideshows of some of the activities we have done with students in the library. All instructions for paper folding crafts can be found here or you can click the links below the images.
