Year 1 Astronomy Night

13 Sep 2021 06:00pm

As part of our science program our Year 1 students will be taking part in the following evening event on Monday 13 September 2021.

Richard Tonello from Astronomy Education Services will be conducting an astronomy field night.  We would like to invite the families of our Year 1 students to bring a picnic dinner to school at 6:00pm which will be followed at 6:30pm with a 20 minute computer presentation in a classroom. The presentation shows the constellations, planets, objects of interest (deep sky objects not seen with the naked eye). This is followed by the telescope viewing on the oval. Four telescopes will be set up so students and parents can view the night sky.  A laser guided tour of the night sky is conducted and Richard will answer questions.  The evening should conclude around 8:30pm.
