Every school in England and Wales is to receive a free DVD of ‘Growing Up in the Universe’, Professor Richard Dawkins’ 1991 Royal Institution Christmas Lectures for children. The DVD is being distributed by the British Humanist Association with funding from the Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Charles Darwin and the 150th anniversary of the publication of ‘On the Origin of Species’, which both fall in 2009.
In addition, we plan to send Suffolk schools copies of the BHA’s ‘Perspectives’ teachers’ resource books by the autumn term, together with the education newsletter, EdLines, thanks to a generous donation from one of our members.
