| Recently, Year 6, as part of their Space project studies, was invited to visit the United Nations Office for Outer Space Affairs (UNOOSA) in Vienna.
The students were given a presentation in the UNΒ assembly hall by the UNOOSA Director Simonetta Di Pippo on the role of the agency and the projects they are currently involved with. After a short Q&A session, UNOOSA surprised the students with a special call in from Astronaut Scott Kelly, who gave them a personal message about opportunities for the students if they continue to work hard.
A highlight was when Director Di Pippo asked the students about their projects and gave themΒ time to share and ask them questions. The UN Staff was very impressed to hear how much ourΒ students understood about Space and questioned them to see if theyΒ were really 10 and 11 years old. |
