Space Classroom Decor: 8 Essential Wall Displays and Resources

Teachers, we have liftoff! Say hello to the Watch this Space Classroom Decor collection.

If you’re setting up a space-themed classroom, you don’t need a rocket full of resources — you need the essentials as you head back to school. The pieces that anchor your room, keep you organised, and still look like they belong on the International Space Station of classroom decor.

Here are the 8 essential space classroom displays and resources you’ll want in orbit from day one:

1. Visual Daily Schedule – Mission Control

Because even astronauts need a flight plan. A clear daily schedule keeps your classroom running smoother than a launch sequence. Bonus: it reduces the “What are we doing next?” questions by about 99.7% (percentage estimated by Houston [not the one who here's about the problem. The ball of fur better known as Houston the dog]).

2. Birthday Display – Blast Off Celebrations

Every student deserves to feel like the star of the galaxy on their big day. A birthday display turns birthdays into mini rocket launches — think planets, shooting stars, or a rocket trail of names blasting across your wall.

3. Welcome Door Display – Entry to Another Universe

Set the tone before students even cross the threshold. Try: “Welcome to Our Space – It’s Out of This World.” Add student names as orbiting planets or stars, and your door becomes the gateway to a galaxy of learning.

4. Desk Plates – Personal Launch Pads

Think of desk plates as each student’s mini spacecraft. They mark out a personal spot, but they also carry important info — names, visuals, or even a little galaxy flourish to tie into your theme. Do you prefer a more rectangular approach? Don't worry we've got you covered. Try these!

5. Command Centre – Houston, We’re Organised

A classroom command centre is where timetables, notices, reminders, and must-see information live. In space terms? It’s mission control. In teacher terms? It’s your sanity saver.

6. Lettering & Bunting – Bold, Bright, and Big Bang-worthy

Lettering is where you go big. Use GTT’s best mix for 2026 to spell out motivational phrases, or hang the “A Space to Grow” bunting across a display. It’s decor that doubles as a daily pep talk.

7. Classroom Agreement – Ground Rules for Astronauts

Every space mission needs rules. Your classroom agreement can be styled as a “crew contract” — signed by every student. It reinforces safety, respect, and belonging, while keeping things collaborative (and a little cosmic).

8. Flip Calendar – Timekeepers of the Universe

The flip calendar - teaching tool that helps students orient themselves in time and keeps the rhythm of the classroom steady. Helping you to prioritise a consistent and predictable approach to each school day.

These 8 essentials are the backbone of a stellar space-themed classroom. From mission-ready schedules to star-studded birthdays and galaxy-bright bunting, you’ll have a space that’s organised, inspiring, and truly out of this world.

So go ahead — kit out your classroom with the space classroom decor resources that matter most. Because when teachers have the right decor in orbit, students can shine brighter than the Milky Way.
