Ep 79 – World of Soil
For Science Week we decided to try a super opportunity to take part in some citizen science. First Class students from Taney Parish Primary School in Dundrum, leapt at the chance to visit the World of Soil exhibit in the Airfield Estate to discover just how important the earth beneath us is. And you can play a part too.
