WORKSHOP OPPORTUNITIES
Plastic Seas
Investigate the stomach contents of an Ocean creature and find out what we can do to help care for the Ocean. The original OCT plastic pollution experience. An ideal blend of curriculum and conservation-based learning.
Under the Knife
Under instruction from our marine experts, your students will carry out their own dissection. With opportunities to dissect fish or squid, many key curriculum concepts can be covered such as skeletal and muscular systems, nutrition and digestion.
Inventafish
Is there such a thing as the perfect fish… and can your students make it? This curriculum-linked, art-based workshop promotes observational skills, creativity, and problem solving as students strive to combine all the days’ learning to create a single, super-species. Includes VR experience!
Ocean Scientist
An introduction to science fun, for younger students. Young scientists will develop their experimental approach through a series of practical investigations linked to the Ocean. Expect puzzles, problems, fun and games… oh, and maybe the odd explosion!
