Neatherd High School Astronomy website (+resources)

Many of the Sun|trek classroom projects have been provided by Mike Cripps, the Head of Science at Neatherd High School and Dereham Sixth Form College, Norfolk. He is a very keen astronomer, and his website is one of the best school astronomy websites in the UK, probably worldwide!
