This years theme was 'sustainability' and how the impact of space debris can affect Earth and what we can do to reduce waste in space.
Thank you to all the children who entered the world space week competition. Please see some of the entries in the PowerPoint below.
Congratulations to Isla in 5I who came third. Holly in 3A who was second. Jaxon in 4F who came first!
Reception have been learning about the solar system and they have learnt the names of the planets. They used the solar system song to help them remember the order of the planets and some facts about them. They then had lots of fun accessing more space activities in the classroom. They drew their own rockets and spaceships, ordered the planets, made stick pin astronauts and enjoyed exploring many space books.
Reception
