Primary School Shows
New for 2006/7

Our Beautiful Earth: A show designed to expand the mind, to make students THINK, it shows what an amazing planet we live on, hear Whalesong, watch a Volcano erupt close up, experience an Earthquake, and human destruction of the Rainforests.

Bugs Lives: a view of the world beneath our feet, a superb look at the nature in our backyard

 

AURIGA Astronomy we believe produces more shows than any other mobile planetarium in the UK for Primary Level Schools (over 30 including variants of shows). All at a fraction of the cost and hassle of a school visit to a museum.

Shows Include:

KS1:

Light & Dark (Day and Night),

Stories in the Sky (constellation stories)

 
Superb Videos and Bang up to date material.     Monkwood School

It Was Wicked!       Yr 5 pupil Burnwood School

The Science of Science fiction (what is real, what is fantasy, and what may be possible)

Saturn-Lord of the Rings (the Cassini Mission includes latest images at the time of the show)

Forces ( a none dome show) i/c gravity, magnetism, Rockets (a highly interactive show, shows can be all three topics, or each as a separate topic)

 
The information was presented in a way to engage the children. Half Acres School

As we produce our own movies, and update them regularly (on average twice a year) we can promise you the best available material and the most up to date knowledge. Our contacts around the world ensure we get the best images as soon as they are released (often ahead of public release).

 

Our presenters are skilled at 'pitching' the level of the show perfectly for the ability of the audience, (there is nothing worse than a presenter giving an A level lecture to 7 yr olds). We can vary our shows to accurately meet your requirements for specific class needs e.g. concentrate on Moon Phases or Orbits.

 

Amazing, you are showing images that were in today's paper! how up to date can you be.                     Westborough High School

All our shows include time for Q&A at the end, and where possible the images are accompanied by music (again created ourselves) to further increase the 'WOW' factor of the event.

Our Schools CD rom of support material contains over 500 MB specifically written by us to provide images, activities and information for follow up class work, or (as the CD is designed as a web site) network activities on your schools computer suite. There are many images on this CD for which, we are the only license holders in the UK.
