We are thrilled to share the remarkable success of our recent 7-day once-in-a-lifetime trip to NASA Houston’s Space Center University! From 15th October to 22nd October, our students had the extraordinary opportunity to explore the wonders of space science, and what a cosmic journey it was! 

During our time at NASA Houston, our students delved into the captivating world of space exploration. They participated in hands-on workshops, underwater micro-gravity simulated space missions, and interactive activities. From assembling rockets to programming robotic rovers and designing Mars habitats, our young explorers immersed themselves in the challenges faced by real-life astronauts and engineers. 

The highlight of the trip was the chance to tour NASA’s state-of-the-art facilities, including the Mission Control Center (the command center for the first moon landing) and the Astronaut Training Center. Walking in the footsteps of legends, our students gained a profound understanding of the dedication and innovation driving space exploration. 

Moreover, meeting astronauts and scientists inspired our students, allowing them to envision exciting futures in the field of space science. The trip not only expanded their knowledge but also nurtured important life skills such as teamwork, problem-solving, and adaptability. 

During our spare time, we managed to fit in a bit of shopping at the mall, gone on a tour of Houston, and thrilled ourselves with the rides at Kemah Boardwalk. 

We want to express our sincere gratitude to our dedicated teachers and enthusiastic students who made this journey possible. Your passion and commitment to education have empowered our students to dream big and reach for the stars.
