WonderDome provided an excellent learning experience for our year 7 class. They were incredibly excited before the show and it exceeded all expectations. The presentation was tailored to our curriculum requirements and they hung on Steve's every word. We'll be making bookings again!

Wonderdome was a excellent event to book. Our presenter was really organised and informative, a pleasure to meet. Not only did we book Wonderdome for our year 7 students who all came out of the experience enthused about the solar system, wanting to know more but we also used wonderdome to introduce astronomy to our year 10 triple Scientists. This session was delivered at exactly the right level and again sparked interesting questions from our KS4 scientists
