TNSF Kanchi Dist. launch Universe Awareness programme


The UNESCO has declared the year 2009 as International Year of Astronomy to celebrate the 400th year of the first use of the Telescope for the systematic observation of celestial bodies by Galileo Galilei, in the Year 1609.
Universe Awareness (UNAWE) is one of the activities of IYA2009 and its aim is to propagate astronomy among very young children.
As a part of launching this programme, we conducted district level Colouring Event for 1st standard children(age 6) with the theme 'Appearance of the earth from the Space' on 20th Dec 2008. We provided the picture and crayons for the state govt. primary school children. Around 1000children participated eagerly in the event from various schools of the district.
This programme will be continued throughout the year. The interested schools from the district may contact kalpakkamtnsf@gmail.com.
