A huge thank you to the incredible Kielder Observatory team for bringing their amazing inflatable planetarium and creating an unforgettable experience for our families! Students and families held real meteorites that were billions of years old, plus fragments of the Moon and Mars. Inside the planetarium, we explored the dark skies, stars, constellations, and planets in stunning detail. Our wonderful staff and student helpers added extra magic with constellation crafts, hot chocolates, and s'mores.
