🌌 Looking up this September? Here are a few astrotourism highlights to add to your calendar.

From spotting two neighbouring galaxies to seeing Venus at its brightest, September is packed with reasons to look to the skies across Australia's Golden Outback. ✨

🌠 Magellanic Clouds on the Rise | 4–14 September
Look skyward from around 7.30pm to spot the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds. These two neighbouring galaxies are visible to the naked eye and can only be seen from the Southern Hemisphere.

🪐 Venus at Greatest Brilliance | 23 September
Our neighbouring planet will shine at its brightest for the year. Look towards the western horizon from 7pm to spot Venus as the evening star. Through a telescope, you may even see its crescent shape.

🌍 September Equinox | 23 September
At 8.05am WA time, the Sun will be directly above Earth’s equator, bringing almost equal hours of daylight and darkness. It’s also when the Sun rises due east and sets due west.

🔭New Telescope Hire in Narembeen
Ready to explore the night sky up close? Narembeen now has a telescope available to hire, perfect for spotting the Moon’s craters, Saturn’s rings and distant star clusters from your own backyard or campsite.

✨ Ready for some stargazing? Save this post and start planning your next night under the stars.

👧 Why do girls stop playing sport, and what can clubs do about it?

Due to high demand of the workshop, the Game On, Girls: Why Girls Drop Out webinar is giving more clubs the chance to hear from Monica Beazley and explore practical ways to help girls feel welcome, connected and supported in sport.

Whether you're a coach, volunteer, administrator or committee member, you'll come away with ideas to help create an environment where girls can thrive as players, leaders and lifelong participants.
