of understanding our world, it is time to reimagine our
approaches and grow our shared strengths.
Belinda Glackin, Science Week Coordinator for Donegal
Library Service, said: “Through our events, we hope to
draw children’s attention to the important ideas about
what scientists do by delivering experiences that
stimulate a child’s natural curiosity and
inquisitiveness.”
