Sammy’s wish was to visit the Brisbane Planetarium with his family
A day full of new learnings. Sammy’s wish was to visit the Sir Thomas Brisbane Planetarium with his family.
The wish started well with an impromptu stop for a Slurpee, which Sammy savoured. It was a sugary hit needed to set up a perfect day with his family.
Once they arrived at the planetarium’s cosmic dome, Sammy and his family were taken on a spectacular ride through the solar system and the things that make up our universe. Sammy showed a particular interest in Mars, which the guide was generous enough to zoom in for a closer look at the red planet.
He finished the tour with a long examination of the replica space suit and rocket display, taking in every detail at his own pace.
For Sammy, this wish was less about being a space fan and more about enjoying a day of discovery surrounded by the people he loves most.
Thank you to our wonderful wish team Sue, Tara and Karen for fulfilling this last wish and for creating memories forever for Sammy’s loved ones.
Thank you to our service partner, Children’s Health Queensland and the support of the Sir Thomas Brisbane Planetarium on this special occasion.
