A new curriculum is set for implementation in Wales from September 2022. Preparation for change is already underway in Gwaunmeisgyn Primary School in South Wales. Various development teams are preparing for the new curriculum, including the three teachers in the science and technology team. The team met to plan and design a bespoke pilot project for their pupils and school. It was agreed that the topic would be called "To Infinity and Beyond!" Staff first researched companies and providers that might provide an effective 'hook' -- a topic immersion activity or visitor to launch the topic. The team happened to stumble upon the fact that astronaut Major Tim Peake was attending an event in Cardiff and invited him to visit the school. To their surprise, he was delighted to make a slight detour to visit the school! This visit certainly engaged the children (and staff) with the new science and technology topic. Enthusiasm and thirst for learning about the topic were definitely fuelled by Tim! His visit was an amazing real-life experience for everyone at Gwaunmeisgyn.
