Friday evening was spent at Boyden Observatory, but the weather was unfortunately not good enough to see planets and stars. The Saturday programme was held at Naval Hill. Learners visited the Mandela statue while the rest of the events took place in the Environmental Hall and Digital Planetarium of the University of the Free State.

Congratulations to all the grade 10 learners and teachers of the Free State for a project well done! We hope you have enjoyed it!
