Our Place in Space (Children)

Back to Presentations

Take a wonderful and entertaining journey through the Solar System, visiting each planet in turn. Rock up on Mercury and whizz around Saturn, we will delve deep into their characteristics and how they interact with one another within in our local neighbourhood. Using the props, we get an idea of a sense of scale and just how the system operates under the influence of the Sun and the force of gravity.

""The Our Place in Space Hands-On Science Workshop was expertly delivered; information was clear and knowledge was built upon as the workshop progressed. The children were entirely engaged through well-thought out demonstrations and interactive activities. Understanding space and the solar system was made accessible to all - even the teachers! This workshop was superb and a must when learning about space!""

"We arranged for Space Detectives to visit our son’s school and show the amazing VR experience to the Year 1 and 2 students. I asked my son if the class enjoyed the sessions, he told me they LOVED IT and then start telling me lots of amazing spaces facts! Great experience and highly recommended"
