The Two Oceans Aquarium Environmental Education Centre is running a host of great courses in the coming months – an excellent way to stay inspired during the school holidays!

SEA Science Investigation

Children between the ages of 10 and 13 years should join in on the SEA: SI programme, which is running from 2 to 4 April, from 08h30 to 15h30. With the expert, interactive guidance of our Environmental Education Centre teachers, kids will become super-sleuths who unravel the mysteries and intricacies of the marine world. This three-day programme during the school holidays opens up a world of underwater magic.

As an added extra – only R50 – to the hands-on education programme, kids can take a marine eco-tour on the Ocean Adventurer on 5 April.

Dates: 2, 3 and 4 April
Time: 08h30 to 15h30
Price: R350 (R450 with a healthy Shoreline Café deal)
Extra: Marine eco-boat tour (5 April) at R50 per child.

Free Young Biologist Course for Grade 11 learners

Due to the success of our annual De Beers-sponsored Young Biologist programme during the September/October holidays last year, we will be running a second programme during the March/April holidays this year.

This free course from 26 March to 1 April will be aimed at Grade 11 learners who are passionate about the marine environment and committed to making a change.

As with the September programme, applicants will spend four days at the Two Oceans Aquarium after which the group spends three days at a camp.

Upon completion of the programme, learners are required to commit to at least 30 volunteer hours at the Two Oceans Aquarium.

Applications for this course close on 29 February 2012.

Please contact Katja Rockstroh for more information on +27 (0)21 418 3823 or email education@aquarium.co.za.
