Year 7 Visit to Greenwich Observatory

On 26 March Year 7uv population visited the Royal Observatory in Greenwich as part of their Year 7 Science course.

Katherine Roberts 7DRT summarised the whole day as follows:
“We did lots of activities like seeing a model of the Earth and the Sun. It showed how we get night and day as well as seasons in a year. Inside the Planetarium, we saw a projection which showed why the Sun is high in the sky during summer than in winter which affects how much light there is. In the galleries there were lots of activities to see and do.”

Jordan Eels 7SEM said “The science trip was very informative and I learnt a lot about space and stars. It was very amazing with a lot of technology inside the planetarium.”

Victoria Hesketh 7PK commented “I think the trip was fun and I also learnt a lot.”

Sophie Drew 7HMS “I thought the trip was really good especially the planetarium because you could see what the planets look like. It was really interesting as well to learn about stars.”
