On Tuesday 19 June the Skyworks Planetaruim visted MVPS to conduct presentations about space. The children watched projections of the realistic night sky inside a large dome. All students from years K-6 participated in the sessions and had a fantastic time exploring concepts such as night and day rotation and orbits demonstrated in a practical way.
I like seeing Stars (Nina K/1 Cockatoos)
I liked the constellations. My favourite was the Southern Cross (Killimai K/1 Cockatoos)
I liked seeing the moon (Algy K/1 Cockatoos)
The Planetarium was so fun! We learnt about star constellations and we learnt how the Moon rotates around the Earth and the Earth rotates around the Sun (Layla-2/3/4 Lizards)
We went in a giant tent and looked at the stars. We learnt about some planets near other stars. (Lynden-2/3/4 Lizards)
I liked it when the stars came up and spun around inside the tent (Lucien-2/3/4 Lizards)
