Great stuff there Paul. Well done for getting out there and getting the kids involved. There will be kids there that will remember this day for ever and you may have helped start a new life long interest and hobby for them.

Cheers Daniel.

Wish i could take credit for it Daniel, but the Cosmic Kids Club has been running from the School and using the Observatory for about 7 years now. I just turn up for the spotlight events



Oh and running a few beginner classes for adults.

Paul, do you know when this episode is going to be aired? I have been keen to visit this observatory at some stage and so would like to watch it when it airs.

I don't know Molly. I've never seen or heard of the program before this, but as I said I don't have TV reception. One of the best things about living in the back blocks.

SALT is a pretty upmarket and glossy production from memory. Might win over some new converts on holiday at the coast.....

There's always DVDs for some of those cloudy nights.

Many thanks Paul!

Hi Molly,
it is called Discover Down Under, and it is on Channel 9, Saturdays 4pm. Should be Australia wide. Have a look at the tv guide, or channel 9 site on line if you don't have a guide.

I just saw Paul on tv!!! Recorded Discover Down Under on Sat, and only just watched it. All decked out in his IIS outfit . This is the first time I have watched this programme, and it is really enjoyable. The scenery shots through Mapleton and Monteville are breathtaking. It's been about 20 years since I last visited, so will definitely have to get back up their soon, perhaps even combining it with one of your Astro nights Paul, Nettie & Ron.

People will think we are all HillBillies up here as Paul, Jeanette, and Myself have no TV, they must think we are back in the Dark Ages.
