How to build a DIY pinhole projector for the eclipse
Don't have eclipse glasses? No problem! You can still watch the eclipse safely and indirectly by building your very own projection device.

What you need:

2 sheets of white paper, card or paper plate

A pin or anything small enough to poke a small 3mm sized hole (Ask a grown-up to help!)

How to do it:

Poke a hole: Use the pin to make a tiny, clean hole right in the middle of one piece of card.

Stand with your back facing the Sun.

Project: Hold the card with the hole up so sunlight shines through it, and hold or place the second sheet of white paper below it.

Watch the magic: Look at the bottom piece of paper. You should see a small projected image of the Sun which will become a crescent as the Moon 'takes a bite' out of it and crosses in front of the Sun.

What are the dangers of viewing an eclipse?
To make sure your eclipse experience is 100% safe, follow these simple rules:

🕶️ Never use normal sunglasses. Even if you were to stack three pairs together, they still won't block the dangerous invisible rays that only ISO 12312-2 rated special eclipse glasses will.

📸 Never look through a camera, telescope, or binoculars. These will act like magnifying glasses and can burn your eyes instantly unless fitted with specialist solar filters in front of the lens.

☁️ Never think clouds make it safe. Sunlight punches right through thin clouds, so don't be tricked or tempted to take a quick glance!

📱 Never look directly at the Sun through your phone screen. You can accidentally catch the Sun in your eye while trying to take a picture. It may also damage your phone's camera lens if you have not fitted it with a solar filter in front of the lens.

😎 Never share glasses while looking up. Put your glasses on before you face the Sun, and take them off after turning away. Sharing glasses may cause one or both of you to reveal an eye, or if swapping your glasses to someone else you may forget to look away first.

International day of friendship.
"Threads of Friendship"
Friendship is a gentle thread,
Woven softly, heart to heart.
Through laughter shared and tears once shed,
It binds us, never to depart.
A hand to hold, a voice to hear,
When storms arrive or skies turn gray.
A friend’s embrace, so calm and near,
Can light the shadows on our way.
Together we walk, through time and place,
Each memory a sparkling star.
No distance, no trial can erase,
The bond that tells us who we are.
So here’s to friends, both near and far,
To those who stay and those who roam.
For friendship is our guiding star,
And in its glow, we’re always home.
