Over this course, we will explore a whole range of ocean topics. There's so much to discover and so much to learn. How do dolphins sleep? How can you identify an individual animal just from a photograph? Can some deep-sea fish expand their stomach, allowing them to swallow prey that's bigger than them!? Why don't penguin's feet freeze? Is it really true about parrotfish making sand? How do octopuses blend in, in the blink of an eye? Why are coral reefs called the nurseries of the sea? We'll answer these questions and more. We especially love to answer the questions your children have - our classes have lots of opportunity for interaction (but you can sit back and take it all in too).

In some classes, we will focus on specific marine animals such as sharks, whales, dolphins, sea turtles. In others, we will explore wider groups of animals like cephalopods (octopuses, squid, cuttlefish and nautilus), ocean giants and marine mammals or we will look at specific ecosystems like coral reefs, the deep sea and the Poles. We will also look at some of the threats that they face but always within the context of what we can all do to help.

Each class stands alone, so you can join in at any time and complete all of the topics as we work our way through the course. We'll start all over again at the end.

The classes are packed with inspiring images and videos and while I'll share lots of information, we'll learn together. The aim is to learn - but we aim to have fun too. We always finish with a quick pop quiz. 

We provide an optional worksheet to go alongside each lesson. This can filled in during the class (although we will not talk through the answers as part of the lesson) or after the class with all of the new information that has been taught. In addition on sign up you get a cover and index sheet to create a booklet for all your completed worksheets.
