Description
Spend these school holidays with marine biologist and environmental educator Emma, exploring the magnificent rockpools at Jawbone Marine Sanctuary! Discover the incredible diversity of marine life and learn how to protect and care for the plants and animals that call the ocean home through a series of fun, hands-on, and educational outdoor activities.
Nestled in Williamstown, Melbourne’s inner west, Jawbone Marine Sanctuary is a hidden coastal gem and the perfect location to introduce children to Victoria’s magical underwater world at low tide. Its crystal-clear waters, vibrant rockpools, and sandstone reefs offer an incredible opportunity to explore the marine life of Port Phillip Bay.
Over the course of two hours, children will investigate the rockpools, learn about the unique ecosystems of Port Phillip Bay and explore the effects of plastic pollution on marine life, and work together to discover practical ways they can take meaningful action to protect the ocean.
With Eco Explorers facilitator and marine biologist Emma leading the adventure, this workshop encourages children to connect with nature, develop empathy for marine life, and become young guardians of the ocean.
Ages: 4 – 10 years
*Parents are responsible for their children at all times.
