When asked to describe the sun, primary school children have all kinds of answers: it lives in space and is made out of lava; it's like a circle (the best of all the shapes); it's 400 kilometres away from earth; if you walk on it you could get burned and, of course, it was formed in a supernova...
OK, we admit it, that last answer put us to shame.
To celebrate Weather Live, a landmark show that delves into the details of weather and our relationship to it, RTÉ asked a group of students from St. Mary's Parish Primary School to discuss Ireland's favourite topic - the weather. Watch their answers in the video above.
Watch Weather Live on Tuesday 30th April, Wednesday 1st May and Thursday 2nd May at 7.00pm on RTÉ One. Find out more here.
