Very happy to have been there to assist. It was a lot of fun and I had a good time. The students were very interested in looking through the scopes and it was good for them to able to do so. It's one thing to learn about astronomy from textbooks and to be given lectures in the various areas of astronomy, it's another entirely to actually get to put that knowledge to practice. It reinforces everything they learn and gives them something to sink their teeth into. Dr Aimee Norton was a very amiable person and I think she was glad to have us there. I hope we can get to do that again at some stage.
