Ireland’s first Playworks playground teaching programme is to be introduced at the Educate Together school in Newcastle in the city tomorrow.
Minister of State for Training and Skills Ciaran Cannon is to officiate at the launch.
The programme aims to make learning fun through old-school games and the use of Playworks equipment used in the US.
The initiative is led by Galway Education Centre in partnership with Ashoka Ireland Change Nation.
The launch takes place at 9.30 tomorrow morning.
Bernard Kirk of Galway Education Centre says two leading Playworks trainers from the US are sharing their knowledge as part of the Galway rollout.
