I did one for 80 Prep Yr 7 amd parents about a month ago and the group was split in two. I had 40 people for 45 min then they swapped while the viewers went for a bush walk. If you can get hold og a green laser that would be a great help. We had two scopes and did a little chat 5min at most including some aboriginal stories about the EMU, sun and moon looking like a boomerang. We looked at the Australian flag and talked about the importance of its features (Southern cross and the 6th star with spikes representing the states and territories. We only had time to look at the moon (loved that) and jupiter. try not to fit too much in and have fun. Take some photos but the lady who invited us to show basically took a photo of every kid as they were about to look. Have a chair or something so kids can reach the eyepiece.
Have fun
