Bring the Universe to your School
This high-definition planetarium experience includes learning about the planets of the Solar System, both the rocky and gas giants, and how they are held by the Sun's gravity. Pupils vividly witness that the Sun, Earth and Moon are approximately spherical - and the way these objects move relative to the Sun. They also observe how the Moon, rockets and satellites move relative to the Earth; and see for themselves how we experience day and night. The 360° planetarium can also dynamically describe the phases of the Moon, the reason for the seasons, and take children on a hyper-realistic rollercoaster ride to experience inertia, gravity and centripetal acceleration first hand!
We recommend leaving sufficient time for questions, to allow students to direct their own lines of enquiry. From exploding stars, colliding galaxies, supermassive black holes, and to what exists beyond the edge of the Universe - all questions are answered with unforgettable high-quality 4K visualisations on the dome.
With our unique approach to teaching the wonders of the Universe, and through our broad range of educational 360° shows for EYFS to Key Stages 1-5, we cater to the ever-evolving cognitive stages of young learners. Our constant stream of glowing customer reviews underscores our dedication to providing truly exceptional experiences.

World War I and World War II
Bring history to life! Transport students back to the global turbulence of WWII, or the infamous trenches of WWI. The grim realities of both wars are suggested but never explicitly depicted - making both immersive films suitable for upper KS2 and older.
The Trench (1914-1918) - Transport your pupils back 100 years in the digital dome with a 24min re-enactment of life in the notorious WWI trenches. A British army private and an officer describe their respective experiences in the trenches, as well as the course and outcome of WWI. Powerful sound effects and music by Wagner, Ravel and Holst add to the atmosphere of the drama. Trailer and full preview on our website.
World 2 War (1939-1945) - Place your students right at the centre of one of the most momentous periods of history with this unforgettable digital dome overview of World War II (available as a full-length 42min version or condensed 29min version). A historically accurate immersive film combining cinematically re-created political events & battle scenes with original film and photographic references. Trailer below, and full preview on our website.
Both experiences are preceded by a trip back in time in the planetarium, to see what was in the night sky during noteworthy events eg. the Battle of Verdun (13 Feb 1916); or on any day during the Battle of Britain; The Blitz, etc. Travelling back in time to a British city or wartime event of your choice will add an extra dimension of realism and understanding to your pupils' appreciation of those events.
"We learned in the introduction about the planets visible in the sky above Newport on the nights of the bombings. This was new information we've never taught before as part of our topic. The children were fully engaged and excited. Mario was very knowledgable and calming throughout what can be a sensitive topic. Highly recommended!"

"Thank you for such a wonderful experience! It was the highlight of the children's WW2 Day. The children found the video to be extremely informative. They described it as a 3D movie experience and they loved the layout of the dome. The hour went by so quickly, and we would all love to do it again!"
