Scientific paper
At a time when major reforms are shaping the education system of the new South Africa, Astronomy could play a crucial role in the teaching and appreciation of science. There is as yet very little Astronomy in formal school curricula, so extra-mural approaches are necessary. In this regard, initiatives have been made by the astronomical national facilities, while many school pupils visit the two major planetariums. At an advanced level, various universities offer courses and professional training.
