Reception Explore Space

10th October 2025
Pre-prep Science

This week, Reception blasted off into Science with Whatever Next! We created our own rockets using bottles and straws and discovered they only fly with the right pressure — a great way to learn about forces! We also explored the solar system and imagined which planet we’d like to visit. What an exciting week of space adventures!
