TITANIC RELAUNCHED – A Voyage of discovery

The drawing rooms at Titanic were the venue for the launch of ‘Titanic Science’ – a teaching resource which investigates the science of the Titanic story. This project was led by Hazelwood Primary’s Jim McDaid who developed the resources with funding from the Primary Science Teaching Trust.

Over the past year a committed group of teachers have worked together to develop this resource – it is innovative and practical. The Department of Education and the Education and Library Boards have shown great interest in the potential of this project. Plans are afoot to develop and distribute it widely. In tandem with this a teacher training programme will soon be rolled out.

Hazelwood is very proud to be part of the creation of this wonderful resource – the fascinating story of the Titanic will be told in all schools across the United Kingdom and we will still maintain, “it was alright when it left here”.
