We had an absolutely fantastic day when Wonder Dome came to visit us for our STEM event in school. The planetarium sessions were excellent and thoroughly enjoyed by all students who participated, and Curtis was so friendly and flexible with the timings of the shows to meet our needs for the event on the day. Thanks so much!

This company gave 3 shows at my school for reception, year 1 and year 2. The presenter was very informative and the children had a great time. Highly recommend.

What a fantastic experience! We are a SEND school with at least half of our pupils being wheelchair users - the dome was completely accessible and the presenter Curtis did everything to ensure all our pupils could access the experience. He adapted the shows to meet the needs of our pupils, from shorter experience sessions, to longer informative guides through space meaning pupils from Early Years to Post 16 could enjoy exploring space. Thank you.

An excellent service from start to finish. The Amin staff at WonderDome answered every question quickly and efficiently in the organisation of a full day visit to our school. The member of Wonderdome's 'space crew' who joined us was informative and engaging and was able to adapt the session for children attending sessions from different year groups (Reception - Year 8). A unique experience, the mobile planetarium was enjoyed by all and really did the trick in getting children to think about our solar system and beyond!

Would highly recommend Wonderdome. I found the company very easy to communicate with. All my queries were swiftly responded to via email. Our school thoroughly enjoyed our sessions in the planetarium. The lessons were fun, interesting and up to date, with each Key Stage having a tailored session to their interest level. We will definitely be using Wonderdome again for future 'Science Weeks'

Wonderdome came into our school recently and it was a fantastic experience for teachers and children! Dennis was engaging, knowledgeable and passionate and he really shared his enthusiasm for space with the children. It was definitely a WOW moment, and one I'm sure the children (and staff) will remember for a long time. Wonderdome certainly brings Earth and Space into schools in a way that our usual resources cannot. Thanks, Dennis!

Our staff and pupils all enjoyed this, Curtis who set it all up was amazing and nothing was too much trouble, he even altered his presentation for us and gave a talk about the life cycle of a star.

What a fantastic day we had with Wonder Dome. From the ease of booking and all of the times and slot we required being organised right through to the day was a simple and easy process. Ben had so much knowledge about space and could answer every question the children came up with. This is such a fantastic experience and opportunity for the children and they were mesmerized from start to finish. This has really support us with our teaching off space. Thank you so much and we can't wait to work with you again next year.

The children had the pleasure of the Wonder dome experience at school this week. They were absolutely blown away and fascinated by the amount of information and knowledge about space. They took away many new facts and wanted to find out even more the solar system. Totally worthwhile and would definitely recommend as part of your curriculum.

Year 5 had a wonderful experience this week! Matt was informative, engaging, with a vast knowledge to share. Staff and pupils left, having expanded their knowledge, very excited about the fact that they will remember their visit to 'The Dome' for years to come.

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

Booked WonderDome for our year 1 children to support their learning of the moon landing. The children absolutely loved it! The presenter set up quickly and presented an informative and engaging show for the children. Every single child left the dome filled with excitement and with the curiosity to learn more. Will most definitely be booking again for next year!

I wanted to thank Dennis for the amazing talk/explanation etc that he gave last week in the planetarium. It was wonderful and, indeed, gave me answers for the University Challenge questions the next week. Parents said how much the children had absorbed. The dome itself is quite an attraction, huge and a surprise for most. Dennis did really well in accommodating a huge age/knowledge range and keeping everyone's interest for well over the allotted time. His enthusiasm was infectious.

Our Y5 and Y2 children loved the planetarium. Kurt, the man who delivered the sessions, was incredibly knowledgable and enthusiastic. The videos and images projected were simply amazing. The children gained a huge amount of knowledge from the sessions and are still talking about their experience a week later! Thank you!

I would just like to say thank you very much to Ben from Wonderdome for his inspiring presentations yesterday. His knowledge and his enthusiasm for the whole space theme was infectious and the children had a fantastic time. Ben was brilliant with the children, all the teachers have commented on how the presentations were perfectly tailored to their level. Thank you once again and we look forward to working with you again in the future.

We have had the Wonder dome visit us two years in a row, and we will definitely be having it come again for a third! The children are in AWE when they walk into the dome and the questioning and information that is given during the experience is wonderful! we will be in touch to book you again soon!
