Just a day and a half between school and the Christmas holidays...after all our hard work I think we deserve a great holiday!
In class we have been following the orbital paths of the International Space Station, it's been a great exercise for trying to locate countries and continents. We use the ISS tracker : http://www.isstracker.com/
Over the Christmas period the ISS should be visible over the UK. So if you are looking up at the night sky trying to spot Santa on Christmas Eve...you might see it whizzing by- it takes just a few minutes to cross over.
Click on the photo to check the times and see what to look out for.
Have a very merry Christmas everyone and in the spirit of our Christmas play, wishing you PEACE, GOODWILL and HOPE for 2016,
Ms Lee :)
