Year 3/4 Trip to RAF Cosford.
Another exciting Stokesay trip. This time to RAF Cosford for the Year 3 and 4 children!
Year 3/4 had an action-packed day at RAF Cosford today!
Rocket Workshop
The children explored how rockets work, learned about thrust and air resistance, and even launched their own rockets. Lots of excitement and some very impressive flights!
Car & Parachute Workshop
In this workshop the children designed small cars, attached parachutes, and then launched them off a top alleyway to test how drag affects speed and landing. Huge laughs, great teamwork, and some very dramatic crashes!
Museum Tour & Cockpit Experience
Everyone enjoyed a guided tour of the museum, spotting planes from different periods and hearing stories behind them. The absolute highlight was climbing into the cockpit of a real aircraft — every single child had a go and loved it.
The children were fantastic all day: polite, curious, and a real credit to Stokesay.
