Teacher comments…


Many thanks for a very interesting program. The lycra / golf ball set-up was particularly helpful for our next lesson on Spacecraft Gallileo getting to Jupiter!

(St Augustine Christian College)

The kids had a fantastic day, there was so much for them to take in.  Several parents had said that their child felt that it was one of the best excursions they had been on.  They really enjoyed every aspect of the day.  Our classes are currently writing reports about the excursion and are quite focussed on that as well….It is a great centre with many wonderful hands on activities.

Thanks so much for having our group yesterday. It was a great day and the kids thoroughly enjoyed the whole day. They were raving about it all the way back to school. The rockets were an added bonus! Your staff were so friendly and helpful throughout the whole day which added to the experience….Thank you for facilitating a fantastic day for the students and teachers.

The students and staff had a great day. This group seemed to enjoy the day even more than previous groups. Thanks to all your staff – in particular Peter Wallis and yourself and Carol, Donna and Grant at the observatory.

We look forward to our next visit…

… had a great day. Thank you.  Kids said it was ‘awesome’…Thanks again.  See you next year.

(All Saints College)

Our day was a great success. The students enjoyed it and seem very engaged in the activities. The rocket launches were a nice surprise (and a good example of energy being changed from one form to another). The activities on offer fitted well with our Science theme for the semester – Energy and Change.
