Our Dream Big Day is something that our children will remember for the rest of their lives. 

Our children had the unique opportunity to experience a day of STEM careers focused around a Mission To Mars. The day was introduced by Professor Brian Cox who suggested to the children that the first person to walk on Mars could be sitting in our assembly hall. From here, the children heard a presentation from a graduate of the European Space Agency, programmed Mars Rovers, experimented on Martian soil, built Robots and visited an immersive planetarium. 

Dream Big Day enabled our children to experience real life science and engineering workshops that will inspire their future aspirations and dreams. We can’t wait for the next one!
