In these action packed 60 minute sessions, children learn about the hydrosphere, the origins and impacts of plastic pollution and what they can do to help protect our sea creatures and oceans with an overview of Ocean Literacy Principles. 

Through a hands-on beach rumble and exploration of organic and inorganic materials we open conversations on source reduction options and reusable alternatives to single use plastics. The presentation includes a safety first discussion. 

Bonus extension materials and exercises are provided to explore our connection to the earth through art, reflection and game play reinforcing that every one of us can make a difference through our choices and actions.

These 60 & 90 minute interactive presentations  mix marine debris education with entertainment. 

Students recognize their ability to reconsider their consumption and maximize their individual and collective action  to create cultural ripples of change through their school, their families and the wider community. 

Diving deeper into the devastating environmental and health consequences of plastic pollution, students are presented with honest facts about the challenges our ocean and environment are facing.

Through a hands-on Exploring Microplastics activity, students see first-hand the complexity of plastic pollution and the difficulties of ocean clean up activities. This refocuses attention on upstream solutions including source reduction and resource capture options.   There is so much hope, and students emerge feeling empowered and inspired to take action to protect and preserve the places they love.
