Room 1 trip to Google

The boys and girls from Room 1 were so lucky to get to visit Google this week, thanks to Chloe!

We walked to Barrow Street down the Canal and were met by Marta and Katie there. They showed us all around the Google offices and buildings.

We were amazed at all the cool stuff there. The views of Dublin were great too!

Thanks so much to Google for having us!
