At 11am on the 6th of April 1966 in Clayton Victoria, over 200 children and teachers claimed to have witnessed a silver disc shaped object flying over Westall Primary and Westall High School, before it zoomed off into a nearby paddock.

Many of the students followed the object into the paddock. Some even claim they were so close they could touch it, feeling the heat radiating off the thing before it shot off into the sky and disappeared. 

The mass sighting would become known as Westall 66.
