Science Enrichment Day!

Class 8 learnt all about Tim Peake the British astronaut who is going to the International Space Station in December. We also tried astronaut food, discussed a variety of facts about Mars and finally created abstract art pictures in the style of Peter Thorpe. What did you enjoy most about this day?!

About the Author
  1. Mrs Steel

    I wasn’t sure about the astronaut food. Why do you think it has to be dehydrated?

    • Aruma

      Is it because it would probably go off and also would be easier to store.

  2. Travis

    Space food needs to be dehydrated because if you brang normal food in space, it would fall apart because of the lack of gravity. Dehydrated food on the other hand would stay together

  3. Ben Be (chair of school council)

  5. Alexander Savkovic (playground buddy)

    I really enjoyed picking 6 items that we would take to the moon, it was really tricky in deciding what to bring and what not to bring. 🙂

  6. Kian

    I enjoyed making abstract art in the style of Peter Thorpe. Mine and Ben’s abstract art picture was a rocket getting sucked into a black hole. I really enjoyed making the rocket.

  20. Oscar

    Is it because the water/liquid would expand? 🙂 😀 😛 😉

  21. joe

    from I opinion the space food was really tasty, but my favourite was art in the afternoon!

  22. kyle

    I think that it has to be dehydrated because so the food will not break apart, if you take normal food into space it will break apart because of the gravity.

  23. Aruma

    I absolutely loved doing the abstract art because it was really fun to use the oil pastels. 🙂
