As their stunning start to 'The Earth and the Solar System' unit of work in Science, Year 5 went to the National Space Centre in Leicester. They all had an idea that it would be a great trip but no-one guessed exactly how great...
The highlights were - a team rocket project workshop, a 360 degree solar system experience in the Planetarium, a space journey simulator, looking at, handling and discussing real space food plus watching a live (beamed in from NASA that day) space walk! The visit was simply space-tacular as you can see from the gallery opposite.
