Borgaregatans skola, Wasa Innovation Center (WIC), Kvarken Space Center, together with LUMA Center Pohjanmaa and Skolresurs arranged a Satellite Workshop for Borgaregatans skola’s 7th graders at the end of May 2023. The aim was to increase student interest in STEM subjects, satellites and space processes.
The chief organizer of the workshop, teacher, Jenny Rönnqvist-Norrby from Borgaregatans skola, brought the various “space” presenters together. With assistance from the other seventh grade teachers, she organized all the students (145 total) and chaperoned them to WIC for the space education workshop. The presentations included four sessions during the day.
