Sue's class and Lisa's class went to the Exploring Space section:

The Exploring Space gallery contains a host of rockets, satellites, space probes and landers.
There is a section devoted to the thousands of satellites that are orbiting our Earth. There is also a highly accurate, full-sized replica of ‘Eagle’ – the lander that took astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin to the Moon in 1969.


The students learnt the names of the two huge rockets displayed in the exhibit:
-British Black Arrow
-United States Scout






And the order of the planets in our solar system:

My (Mercury) Very (Venus) Easy (Earth) Method (Mars) Just (Jupiter) Speeds (Saturn) Up (Uranus) Naming (Neptune) Planets (Pluto)

Becca's class went to the 'Who Am I?' exhibit which is a fantastic and very interesting exhibit which focuses on the human body, our fears, habits, feelings and the way that we live.
