Year 7 Students Explore the Universe at the Mobile Planetarium During STEM Festival

As part of this year’s STEM Festival, Year 7 students had the exciting opportunity to embark on an incredible journey through the stars with a visit to a mobile planetarium. The immersive experience allowed the students to learn about the fascinating composition of stars and how the elements that make up everything (including themselves), were originally formed in the cores of distant stars across the universe.

The students also gained a deeper understanding of the vast size and scale of the universe, which left many of them in awe. Throughout the session, the girls actively engaged with the knowledgeable presenter, Dave, asking insightful questions and further expanding their curiosity about the cosmos.

This hands-on experience was a highlight of the STEM Festival, sparking a sense of wonder and discovery among the Year 7 students.
