• F2 Space Centre Trip

  Tue 08 Feb 2022 Mrs Rowlett

  Today F2 finally got to go on their trip to the space centre in Leicester! The children were very excited and behaved so well on the bus. When we arrived we explored all of the different exhibitions and even saw a real life rocket. We enjoyed pretending we were in a shuttle control room, but our favourite part was the planetarium. We learnt so much about what life was like for astronauts and we felt like we were flying through space! Visit our class blog page to see more pictures!
