Schools & Education Institutions

As part of Our mission inspiring the Next Generation through the wonders of the universe by bringing Astronomy and Space Science to schools and Learning Institutions.

Our Education Vision

We believe every student should have the opportunity to experience the wonders of the night sky. Through our school programs, we aim to inspire curiosity, encourage scientific thinking and motivate the next generation of explorers, innovators and dreamers by, offering a range of specialised Astronomy and Stargazing presentations with visual aids making it interesting and engaging for pupils. Igniting Curiosity, Discovery and Passion for the Cosmos.

Unique Science Program coming to Your School

Astronomy and Stargazing is still very new in the East African Region, yet there is lots of job opportunities and international collaborations in the field. Let Your school catch up to international levels.

The Solar Rotation Program

The Star Safari Solar Rotation Program is an annual astronomy education program designed to help students experience how the night sky changes throughout the year. As Earth moves around the Sun, different constellations, planets, celestial events, and deep-sky objects become visible. Through regular visits, students can observe these changes firsthand and develop a deeper understanding of the universe.The program provides one educational Star Safari visit per school term, creating a continuous learning experience throughout the academic year. Participating schools receive discounted rates, allowing students to build their astronomy knowledge progressively from one session to the next while strengthening their interest in science and STEM education.Beyond the regular school visits, students involved in astronomy clubs are invited to stargazing events and astronomy workshops. Star Safari also provides reading materials to participating students and rewards outstanding performers with opportunities to receive telescopes, encouraging further exploration and practical learning.A key part of the program is the establishment and development of Astronomy Clubs within subscribed schools. The Star Safari team works with interested students and teachers to identify astronomy enthusiasts and support them in creating active clubs. Each session also includes an interactive Question & Answer segment, giving students an opportunity to ask questions and deepen their understanding of astronomy.Through the Solar Rotation Program, Star Safari aims to build a growing community of young explorers, critical thinkers, and future scientists by transforming astronomy from a classroom concept into an exciting, hands-on experience of discovery.

Weather & Sky Conditions

Because Astronomy depends on clear skies, our weather & Sky conditions Team continuously monitors forecasts, cloud cover and moon phases. Schools will receive updates and recommendations on the best nights for observation, ensuring students enjoy the highest quality stargazing experience possible.
