Overview
Suitable for Y0-4 students
After listening to an interactive story about ‘James the Air Force pilot’, children first learn about, then try on real pilot’s clothing, watch an Air Force video, sit in an ejection seat, and make a kitset glider to take home. A wonderful learning experience and great for photo opportunities.
