I reckon I have shown a few thousand kids through scopes in the daytime at school with a white light solar filter, including both transits of Venus. For 99% of kids just seeing the sun, grasping its diameter relative to earth, seeing a sunspot and knowing what it is, will make a big impact.
Make sure you have good teacher support and give a short group warning on sun safety. (I always tape my filter on too)
If you can get the moon in, even better.
I would suggest only have 2 scopes if you have another person manning that one too ! Kids can do daft things, like trying to point the 2nd moon scope at the sun !
