This workshop enlightened the girls on the various aspects of life as an astronaut on the International Space Session; eating, working, exercising and cleaning water for drinking. The girls loved exploring the space gallery, locating artefacts gigantic and small, with a particular highlight being the space nappy! They also enjoyed the hands-on time in The Garden, playing with light, water and sound. A big thank you to all of our parents helpers, who contributed to a sensational and scintillating day of science!
