Carter Observatory


Our next stop was the Carter Observatory. We spent time in the planetarium watching an amazing presentation about the weather on all the planets in our solar system.
Then in the classroom we shared and developed our knowledge, before working on a visual way to show the distance each planet is from the sun.
It really made sense and was far easier to understand than talking about millions of light years!!!
(Becky, the kind teacher has emailed this activity to Mrs. Hawke so that all of the classes at St Mary’s can learn about this!)

  2. Hi Seniors. we had a Hymn Practice this morning for your End of Year Mass and we missed you being there. the rest of the school did a really good job of learning some new hymns. My class crowded around the laptop this morning to see the photos Mrs Hawke sent and they were most impressed by the Carter Observatoy. they wanted to know if you could see the Solar Eclipse still. Hope its all going well for you and that you having a great time. remember to be kind and caring to each other and to the parents and teachers. god bless you all, love, Mrs Neilson
