Educational Material

In order for the mobile planetarium programme to have a long lasting effect, educational material is needed that can be handed over to the schools that have been visited and trained. Teachers can use these materials in their teachers throughout the year, following up on the images the learners were exposed to in the mobile planetarium. This will create a durable effect in the lives of the children.
