The Solar System is a broad topic that can inspire children and stoke their imaginations on many different levels. As a theme it also provides an opportunity to teach across many areas of the primary school curriculum; science, history, geography, mathematics, English comprehension, visual arts and drama, even P.E. can be brought into lessons based on this theme.
