ROCKETS
 

All our Key Stage 1 workshops are interactive and have been created in line with the National Curriculum.

Rockets!

Recommended: Years 2-5 (can be for year 1 also - please talk to bookings team)

By designing and launching air powered rockets children are taught how different forces work and in particular Newton’s third law.

Using action and reaction children can see why rockets take off.

Students design, make and launch their very own rocket which they will be able to take home with them.

Curriculum links: Forces and motion.

Ask about our next Sunshine Storytime

Sunshine Storytime has been developed specifically for 3 to 5 year olds and is ideal for Reception classes that want to visit the National Space Centre.

Combining stories, activities, songs and trails, this is a fun and interactive way for young children to continue their early educational development.

These activities have been developed in line with the Early Years curriculum and Foundation Stage areas of learning and development and cover aspects of:

• Communication, Language and Literacy
