School Activities

The Mornington Peninsula Astronomical Society prides itself on extending its facilities and services to the general public, educational bodies, and other public societies.

Being more than just a club, the Society aims to be a resource to the community and to its members.

For school extra-curricular activities, the Mornington Peninsula Astronomical Society has numerous flexible solutions to bring astronomy to the people. Either having engagements held at our public viewing dark site in Mount Martha (Briars Park, see how to get there...), or at your school itself.

We can provide interesting and informative presentations using our or your in house facilities, with Powerpoint being one of our preferred medias. In addition to this, we have a group of dedicated members who will bring their telescopes to your location (note this is location limited).

For our presentations, we can bring along a range of impressive meteorite samples, including rare ones from Australia and overseas, and sometimes, possibly a piece of the famous Cranbourne meteorite.

To date over 38,000 visitors have enjoyed the MPAS presentations and telescopes.

Public Viewing Nights 

Just to let everyone know, public viewing nights are held every first Friday of the month. Clear or cloudy nights the public viewing night goes ahead. Members man a number of telescopes of various sizes and types, and for those nights where the sky is cloudy, extended astronomical presentations are presented in the MPAS Viewing Centre.

So please come along and enjoy our nights sky.
