Today we went on our trip to Antarctica! (Well a special exhibition at the National History Museum anyway!) We were lucky enough to have fantastic weather despite a bad forecast and spent a very enjoyable day where most of Year 5 were absolute super stars!
We all went around the exhibitions and had a chance to play the games. We can use our ticket to graduate and become ice commanders and receive a real certificate. If your child can do it at home or get to the library that would be fantastic.
This is a real snow-mobile!

There are lots more photos that I could show you... we will try to put them on display!
Ask your child about the activities we did there and about the special talk some of us were lucky to receive on penguins.
Some of us pretended we were penguins and considered how we would keep warm!
We were a little disappointed with the dark room as it wasn't actually very dark, just a video!

Here we had the chance to be deep sea divers! We had to race each other to get to the bottom... it was harder than it looked!
