Year 5 had a fantastic morning visiting the Wyvern Academy to learn about space and light. They were able to experience space inside a planetarium dome, learning all about the International Space Station, different constellations and some of the planets which are visible in the sky at the moment. The second workshop was all about detecting light and how light can change. The pupils used infrared detectors and made bracelets that can detect UV light. When the beads are directly under UV light they change colour to help us see when the light is very strong.
