Star Gazing Night.

Last night at 7:30 the Boulcott School middles had a Star Gazing Night, it was so amazing. The day after, we went around the class and interviewed some people about what they learnt and saw.

Mr R said...''It was really impressed that I saw Jupiter's 4 largest moons. I liked seeing Maui's hook constellation,it was cool! I didn't know that you could see Jupiter and some other planets. It was neat to see heaps of people learning new things.''

Emily said... ''I saw the teapot constellation. I also saw the planets Jupiter, Venus and Mars.I saw scorpius and the southern cross.I had a good time. I learnt that the southern cross is also called ''crux"."

Aidan said..." I saw Jupiter and scorpio. I also saw the teapot constellation, Mars and Venus."

Everyone had heaps of fun and some people even got a free hot chocolate!!! We all felt tired but happy at the end.
