Hi Alex,

I also did a viewing evening on the Tuesday just past to Prep kids and their year 7 buddies. All up we had around 80 including parents. We had 40 at a time while the other 40 did a bush walk for about 45 min. spoke initially about the Australian flag and the sinificance of the union jack. southern cross (lasered while talking about this as well as the 7 pointed star with each point representing a state of australia and the 7th poimnt representing both NT and ACT. I then talked about a bit of Aboriginal Astronomy and related some stories from the internet about the emu, the sun and the moon in relation to their culture. Great night, just some thoughts for your next evening.
