Minis’ Assembly - World Space Week

This week’s assembly was led by Jenny and her Year 5 class, telling us about the start of ‘World Space Week’. World Space week started on 4th October and is a celebration of space science and technology, helping us learn and improve life on Earth as well as in space.

Year 5 tested our knowledge of the planets in our solar system and then told us about space stories that have been in the news recently. This linked with their IPC topic of ‘Making the News!’. 

Jenny read a story called ‘The Smeds and the Smoos’ by Julia Donaldson, set in space. This is her latest book, which was only published last week, so we were very lucky to have been able to get a copy to read!!

Our gratitudes and stars of the week were all based around the IPC goal of communication and the students had plenty of examples of this to share in the assembly.

A super week has been had by all!
