Primary School Tours

Take a class trip to Ireland's most exciting aviation hub

Discover flight with our fun and educational Aviation Primary School Tours!

Primary School Tours at the Aerospace Discovery Centre are a great idea for your school day out.

Aviation is a fascinating subject and children are especially curious about the wonders of flight. Our primary school tours are designed to introduce school students to the science behind flight in a fun ‘hands on, minds on’ format. Student’s will learn about the four forces acting on an airplane in flight and how airplanes are flown and controlled.

Now it’s time to test those theories during a simulated flying lesson with a real world pilot. Teams of two students work together to navigate a course around New York, with a few loop-the-loops and rolls along the way. This is a really big hit with both boys and girls and keeps them talking for a long time afterwards!

Then, take a guided tour of our Aviation Visitor Centre to see a cool collection of exhibits including an Aircraft Carrier Jet, a Spitfire Cockpit, Landing Gear, Jet Engines  Models, Memorabilia and lots more.

    To whom it may concern,
    I am a teacher in Charleville. I was wondering have you dates available in June for a school tour?
    And how much for a group of about 60 children?
    Thanking you,
    Amy Carroll

What our visitors say
  • Jane opened the centre especially for us at short notice and brought us on the 737 simulator, really interesting and absorbing experience, the screen fills your field of vision and its totally convincing. lots to see and learn, well recommended for a visit.

    Really enthusiastic, great experience
    Eamonn M, Limerick, Ireland
  • This is a must see in Shannon. It is on the main road into the town and the airport. It contains everything that any one (young and old) interested in aircraft could want. There are planes out in the forecourt (the building and grounds used to be a main car dealership) and everything else inside including a flight simulator. The guy who set this up worked long and hard to raise funds to bring this to Shannon and all credit to him.You will not be disappointed.

    This is a must see in Shannon
    norandrobbo, Shannon, Ireland
  • To engage and enthral 6 ‘hard to please’ ten year olds for a full 2 hours is no mean feat, yet the crew at Atlantic Airventure managed it with aplomb. The ease of booking, the super-friendly telephone conversations and the helpful suggestions about bringing the cake and organising take-away food made it the easiest party ever to organise. The boys and girls were equally interested and totally excited by the simulator experiences, the lifejacket demonstration and the viewing of the planes. To cap it all, they even took photos for me and emailed them on afterwards. Cannot praise the team highly enough. We will be back.

    Best 10th Birthday Party Venue ever!
