Stars and space exploration.
Calling all stargazers and budding astronauts this October half term.
- Booking not needed
- Free event
Make a mini rocket you can launch into space, well almost, with puff power, create your own constellation projector to shine on your bedroom wall at night and have a play with our moon dough.

With each exciting new space discovery, we can better understand and help our planet Earth, an oasis for life, to thrive.
