Star gazing for instructors

Have you ever been out on a clear night, looked up and wondered what star is that? or been out on expedition and wished to know more about what you can see?

Then this workshop is about giving you that confidance to identify stars, constellations and make sence of the changing night sky.

The session will use various methods to help you understand the celestial patterns in the sky and how they change through out the year. The intention is for this to be a classroom based workshop as the sunset times and weather may inhibit direct observation, however practical observing will be done if viable.
