Due to popular demand, the team at Grassholme Observatory have laid on this exclusive event to educate the little ones on all things spacey! What better way to get the kids into astronomy and science than a visit to one of the UK’s newest observatories.

Your little ones will enjoy an interactive talk in the classroom and then children will be able to see and touch rocks from space – meteorites. A stunning interactive talk on space stuff in our purpose-built classroom and then weather permitting outside under the stars for some stargazing and peering through telescopes.

Hot chocolate and radiators are available too! All in all, a wonderful introduction to Family astronomy under the dark skies of Grassholme.

This event is part of the North Pennines Stargazing Festival running from 21 to 30 October 2022 –www.NorthPenninesStarFest.org.uk #NorthPennStarFest22 #NPennDarkSkies
