Year 5 visit Winchester Science Centre
Our Year 5 pupils had an incredible time visiting the Winchester Science Centre and Planetarium, bringing their classroom learning to life!
The children dived right into an array of hands-on exhibits that reinforced key science concepts like forces, light, sound and space. They especially loved testing out interactive displays on pulleys, levers and magnets, alongside experimenting with light and shadows.
A standout moment of the trip was the immersive planetarium show, which took the class on an awe-inspiring tour of the night sky. They explored the solar system, discovered how stars evolve, and watched constellations light up above them, perfectly tying into our science unit on the solar system.
Beyond expanding their scientific knowledge, the students demonstrated wonderful teamwork, curiosity, and critical thinking. Their fantastic behaviour and enthusiasm made it a truly memorable and inspiring day for everyone involved!
