Program

Visnan School of Astronomy 2016 takes place from July 20 to 29, 2016. The official languages of the school are Croatian and English. To maintain high level of individual work between mentors and team members, the program is planned for 12-15 highschool students (grades 8-12).

Most of the activities take place at the Visnjan Observatory and in the newly renovated dormitory behind Visnjan elementary school, but some groups will spend part of their time working at the Tican Observatory as well. Meals are organized at the Borgonja restaurant.
