Astronomy - Observatory Trip
This Teachers TV programme follows amateur astronomer Bill Forest as he gives a primary class a tour of an observatory. Teacher Adrienne Bullen arranges an evening trip for her class from Ponsbourne St Mary's Primary School in Hertfordshire. The children ask questions about space and look at stars through a telescope, getting a glimpse into the workings of a small observatory. The trip inspires and excites the Key Stage Two class and helps the children put their work into context. This clip is designed to be used as a lesson starter when studying astronomy at Key Stage Two.
