As you probably know, on Friday a Solar Eclipse is due to happen . This is such a rare event that we feel we would like the children to feel part of the experience. We have told them that if they have special glasses or equipment at home which they wish to bring, they can . It may be too cloudy to see but we think it will be interesting to let the children notice what happens around them as it gets darker. Some classes are making pinpoint cameras to look at an image of the Sun. The children will be clearly instructed not to look directly at the Sun and teachers will be watching them closely to make sure they do not this. They will be encouraged to look and listen to the changes. We feel it is too good an opportunity to miss!
