Hi everyone my name is Deirdre and I’ve been teaching for nearly 20 years, I’ll be teaching 1st class next year
I’ve always been interested in the cosmos. We enjoyed a recent school tour to Blackrock Castle Observatory, my favourite school tour venue in Cork. I enjoy listening to Brian Cox and recently went to see his show which was fascinating.
One of my favourite space facts is that there are more stars in the universe than grains of sand on earth. It really puts the vast scale of the universe into perspective.
