I will get a blue card, but it will be too late for the eclipse I think.

Hey Mike,
That's not quite true, if you are a guardian of a child in that school you do not need a blue card to work at that school, you would be well within your legal rights to attend, if in doubt google child protection and look at their web site, it is quite clear on this. I have a blue card so i can attend schools with my astronomy which I do quite a bit.
cheers, Dennis.
