Stage 2 Planetarium incursion

Stage 2 students have been studying the ‘Night and Day’ unit of work in Science. To support student learning we have organised for the interactive Starr’s Planetarium to visit the school.

“Starr's Planetarium has the most advanced 3D immersive projection system travelling to venues today. Our ground breaking technology in our mobile planetarium has been inspiring and entertaining since 2005. The dome provides a theatre setting for 360 degree immersive 3D digital images with surround sound that is totally interactive.  Combining animation with real time imagery students will see close up detail on a massive scale of exactly what will be in the sky above them that night.  We will take you into the farthest regions of the universe.  Students and teachers can also request to see particular parts of the solar system and through our state of the art software, it will feel like we are taking you on a trip right there.”
