We welcomed the Children of Sutton-at-Hone Primary school to the Dick Chambers Observatory on the 12th December 2018. They had a chance to look through the Peter Hindle telescope and from the photos it looks like they had a great time, whilst learning a bit about the science of Astronomy.

The 9th Dartford Cubs visit

The 9th Dartford Cubs visit to the Dick Chambers Sutton-at-Hone Observatory

On the 16th March 2016, the 9th Dartford Cubs visited the Dick Chambers Sutton at Hone Observatory.

CMHASD members Rita Whiting, Andy Barber, Steve Goldstone & Honor Wheeler were present.

Honor spoke about the Stars & Solar Observing, Rita spoke about the Solar System & the Constellations, Steve spoke about the Moon & the Apollo missions and Andy showed the cubs the 16'' telescope & the Dick Chambers Observatory.

It was a fun night and as you will see from the photos below, the cubs were very curious about what we do as a Society & about Astronomy. The cubs had lots of very interesting and at times quite challenging questions for members too :-D
