Junior Infant teacher, Mr Ryan’ s brother Daniel has been an engineer with the Red Bull Formula One team for the past four years. They are currently rolling out a schools initiative that gives pupils an opportunity to learn about Formula One in an engaging, hands-on way.

 

As part of the visit, students were able to see the equipment drivers wear, explore the electronics used in the cars and learn about the engineering and technology behind the sport. Daniel would also brought race-worn items, including helmets used by drivers such as Max Verstappen.

This proved to be a hugely engaging and enjoyable learning experience for 5th and 6th class pupils. Many thanks to Mr Ryan and his brother Daniel.
