The Last Aliens

An intergalactic adventure to save Planet Earth!

The Last Aliens is a great opportunity for Second Level pupils to engage with climate change as Scotland prepares to host the 26th UN Climate Change Conference – an event of worldwide significance.

This digital version of our ever-popular Primary Schools Tour gives teachers all the tools they need to do it themselves. Whether trying it for the first time, or a regular host, you will find a funny, engaging and relevant story with five fantastic songs to learn. We provide a set of lesson plans, audio guides and demonstration films to teach music and movement, along with ideas for making props and costumes – everything teachers need to guide pupils through The Last Aliens.
