Beech Tree: Solar System

Date: 1st Oct 2026 @ 3:39pm

Hello all.

Beech Tree had another exciting week.

 As part of our science learning this half term, we have been learning all about the planets in our solar system, including their names and the differences between them and Earth.

The children have been fantastic at remembering the names of the planets and their order from the Sun. It has been wonderful to see their enthusiasm and curiosity as they learn more about space!

This week, as an extra activity, the children had the exciting opportunity to dress up as astronauts and pretend to walk on the Moon. They had so much fun exploring, imagining what it might be like to be an astronaut, and bringing their learning to life! 🚀🌙👩‍🚀
