Found this whilst looking at APOD;

If you have kids at school and they might not have heard of it, give it a go!
This was last years winner:

Hi Bart,

Thanks for the heads-up on this and what a brilliant competition to help
promote astronomy and science in Australian schools!

I know there will be some IceInSpace members probably wishing they were
still back in school so they would get this type of opportunity.

I hope IceInSpace members can spread the word and encourage their
local school to participate.

Best Regards

Thanks Bart,

It's a great idea and but it looks to me like it might be a bit late for this year - entries due on May 13. Still I am going to mention it around as something to work towards for next year.

Would seem like a good opportunity for partnerships for some of our clubs with local schools too.

Rod.

No problems Gary and Rod,
and yes......forgot to mention the deadline is only a month away......
