Journey Through Space

Blast off into an exciting journey through the cosmos with our Journey Through Space workshop, designed especially for primary school children.

This immersive experience brings the wonders of outer space directly into your school using cutting-edge Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) technology.

Pupils step into the shoes of astronauts, exploring planets, stars and galaxies in a way that ignites curiosity and imagination.

This unforgettable journey blends science, technology and exploration to bring learning to life.

Overview

Using Virtual and Augmented Reality, pupils embark on an unforgettable journey beyond Earth, stepping into space and exploring the solar system as if they were real astronauts.

They travel from Mercury to Neptune, discovering what makes each planet unique, from scorching temperatures and icy surfaces to swirling storms and vast rings.

This immersive experience brings abstract space concepts to life, helping children visualise ideas that are often difficult to grasp in the classroom.

As they journey through space, pupils learn about planets, moons, stars and galaxies, developing a clearer understanding of how our solar system fits into the wider universe.

They explore how planets move, why some worlds are rocky while others are gaseous, and what makes Earth such a special place to live.

Curiosity is encouraged at every step.

Children are invited to ask questions, make observations, and share their thoughts as they explore what lies beyond our planet.

By engaging directly with STEM concepts, pupils begin to think critically about space travel, scientific discovery and the technology that makes exploration possible.

The experience feels like a real space mission, combining exploration, discovery and learning in an exciting and accessible way.

Using VR and AR allows pupils to explore space safely and confidently, building excitement while supporting different learning styles.

Children leave the session with a deeper understanding of the solar system, a sense of wonder about the universe, and a renewed enthusiasm for science and exploration.

Why Schools Love the Journey Through Space

"Fantastic day of workshops. We chose the space topic in virtual reality-The children were amazed with the headsets and were still talking about it a few days later. Will look at upcoming topics and book something else in. Thank You couldn't recommend enough!"
Charlotte Brookes
"Giant Journeys came in today to deliver their Virtual Reality workshops. What an incredible experience for all of the children. Many had not experienced VR before and were blown away. We walked on the moon and experienced a trip to Mars. I’ve got at least 3 children who have decided they want to be astronauts when they grow up! Hopefully you can come back again soon. Thank you."
