As part of Science Week, the Year 5 students from Meadow Springs Campus teamed up with their Kindy buddies to explore the wonders of our solar system. Together, they went on a “planet hunt,” finding each planet and performing a movement inspired by an interesting fact about it.
Afterwards, they rejoined to create colourful paper-plate models of the solar system. For the Year 5s, this was a great opportunity to apply their knowledge of space and planetary facts. For the Kindy students, it was a chance to practise their fundamental movement skills, fine motor skills, and—most importantly—have plenty of fun with their older buddies.
