Transcript Social Story - Winchester Science Centre & Planetarium

My visit to Winchester Science
Centre
• This is a photo of the outside of the Winchester Science Centre
building.
• The white dome is the planetarium.
• I am going to visit Winchester Science Centre.
There are 2 ways to come into
Winchester Science Centre.
• I can go up the steps to
the main entrance.
• I can go in through the
special schools
entrance.
I will be met by
• Vanessa
• Allison
• They are very friendly and are here to help me when I am
at Winchester Science Centre. They wear pink t-shirts.
• If I have a question when I am at Winchester Science
Centre I can ask Vanessa or Allison or the people in the
pink Winchester Science Centre t-shirts.
• When I arrive at Winchester Science Centre
Vanessa or Allison will take me to the
cloakroom. I can leave my bag on the shelves
that have my school name on and my coat on
the coat rack, they will be safe there.
• I will then sit at the blue tables in the dining
room so that Vanessa or Allison can tell me
where things are at Winchester Science Centre
and where I can have my lunch with my class.
• Winchester Science Centre is a busy place.
There might be lots of other children at
Winchester Science Centre when I visit. It
might be very noisy when I visit.
• If I don’t like the noise I can tell my teacher.
They will take me somewhere quiet.
• I must not leave the area where my group is
unless my teacher says I can. This is so adults
know where I am and I am safe.
• If I don’t know where my group is I can ask at
the main desk where Gina works.
•To get to the main
desk I will have to go
through the access
gate.
• There are lots of fun things for me to see and do
at Winchester Science Centre.
• Downstairs there are lots of activities about light
that I can do. This photo shows some of the
activities I can do here.
• If I don’t know what to do I
can ask my teacher.
• I won’t get into trouble if I
make a mistake.
• This is a photo of the
upstairs area.
• Here I can find the
‘Move it’ exhibit. I can
have lots of fun making
the green beads move
round this exhibit.
• I might visit the shop if I have some money
with me. There are lots of things that I can
buy. I can pay at the main desk where Gina
works.
• This is a photo of where I
will stand to wait for the
planetarium show.
• This is the inside of the
planetarium. When I walk
in I will be able to see
coloured lights around the
wall that change colour. It
gets a bit dark. If I don’t
like it I can tell my
teachers and they will take
me somewhere else.
• This is where I will see a show about space.
• When it is time to go home I will collect my
belongings and wait with my teacher until
Vanessa tells us our bus is waiting for us.
• We will then leave Winchester Science Centre
and get on our bus.
