Yesterday was the final day of astronomy club at St Leonards in Padiham. It was also the last day of school before half term so I had some pretty hyper students trying to learn about The Big Bang! Despite the rowdiness we covered no small amount of ground and had the inevitable giggles when a student questioned how exactly astronauts use the toilet in a space suit.
A great school and hopefully one we can return in the autumn with our telescopes to do some stargazing.
We're also thrilled to announce that a group with whom we work very closely, Summer Fun 4 All has won funding from Children In Need to go ahead with a three year programme which will include Stargazing Live with us over summer. We're really pleased about that as we get to show off the cosmos to a whole group of new people that would never be reached with it otherwise. We also have provision for something pretty special over the summer, and I'll be telling you more about that at a later date.
This summer we have made time and provision to make a big impact in the summer holidays. So many people will be looking for something to do and we have a winning lottery ticket, the entire universe to see. Tonight Erica and I will have a curry and further our plans for world domination...
