This week in Science the Year 1 and Year 2 students have been learning about phases of the moon and star constellations.  They were given the opportunity to design and create their very own star constellation using coloured sticks and plasticine. Both Year 1 and Year 2 loved the hands-on experience, and all the students were very creative. Some students made peacock constellations, fish constellations and lots of students came up with numerous other very thought-provoking ideas. 

As soon as the cloud lifts in our area I am certain lots of our stage 1 students will be out stargazing, looking for various star constellations, including the Southern Cross. They will also be checking out the different phases of the moon, and especially looking out for our next full moon. It is always great fun learning lots of things in our Science lessons.
