Year 5 - Blast off into the Royal Observatory, Greenwich

Year 5 have been learning about Space this half term and went to the Royal Observatory for our first trip! We found out facts about the solar system in the planetarium. Did you know planet X doesn't actually exist?

Additionally, we walked around the Weller Astronomy Galleries and partook in a workshop, where we looked at the comparison of the earth, sun and moon. We found out that the earth is 4 times the size of the moon and the sun is merely a tiny star!
