Seasons

There are four seasons: Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter. Parts of the Earth experience each season once each year.

You might think it gets colder in the winter because the Earth moves further away from the Sun. This is not true! In fact, when it is winter in Europe it is summer in Australia. So whenever it is winter somewhere on Earth, another part of the planet is having its summer.
