This week the children have been continue to explore Space in science and we looked at the moon orbit around the earth and the different phases we see during its lunar orbit. We then made these phases out of jaffa cakes. The children then got to eat their own jaffa cake moon and we have never seen moons eaten that quickly before!!
We are very lucky to live in such close proximity to a Dark Skies National Park – the South Downs. The park’s Dark Skies Festival is beginning this weekend and runs from 4th – 17th February 2023.
