This popular annual event appealed to the whole community engaging them in science and maths as a fun activity. Everyone had fun on the night and took away free posters, leaflets, fingerprint keyrings and walton high red bugs. Individual primary students took away a jitterbug, designed, built and raced by them during the evening.
The event was open to the local and wider community, was free of charge and all were welcome to take part or spectate. The free baked potato supper was also very popular! The main attraction was a 6 metre mobile planetarium in the Drama Studio, one of the largest in the UK. Three 25 minute star and planet gazing experiences were available to book on the evening.
There are still places available for Community Learning courses starting after the Easter holiday (week commencing 19th April). Courses include Digital Photography, Dancercise, Tap Dancing, Keep Fit, Gardening, Art, French, Italian and Yoga.
