On Wednesday the 9th of April, 5th class visited Trinity College for their TAP Mini Med Day.
When we arrived at Trinity we were treated to a wonderful talk from Professor Luke O’Neill who spoke to us about Immunology and told the students loads of interesting facts about bacteria and viruses.
After a quick break for lunch, 5th class had the opportunity to become doctors themselves which they really enjoyed. They learned about first aid, took their blood pressure and listened to their heartbeat, looked at X-rays, performed CPR, scrubbed in for surgery, and looked for their reflexes. It’s fair to say we have a few aspiring doctors and nurses among us now.
After all the excitement we thought it was only right to chill out in the sun with some ice cream and talk about our highlights from the day ☀️
