Service Description

Living in the UK we are surrounded by the sea which contains some beautiful and marvelous marine life. At Mulberry Marine Experiences we are inspired by the love our Junior Ecologists have for the ocean and are passionate about giving them the chance to get involved in a practical, fun way and help them further their knowledge. Expanding on our work with the successful summer school program these smaller micro events offer them the opportunity to get hands on. Led by SSI Marine Ecology Instructor Anya. With over 20 years of UK experience, she loves nothing more than sharing the incredible facts stuffed into her head and time on the beach. Sessions will be offered monthly with additional sessions offered in school holidays. What we will be doing? The Kids Ecology Club runs over a 2 hour period. During that time, Anya will take them through activities designed to help them discover ecosystems, concepts of marine ecology and the inhabitants that can be found on the shoreline. Each session is focused around one concept/topic, and we use games, activities, and exploration to support learning concepts. All activities are aimed at children aged 6-12, we will offer different sessions for older ocean lovers. Children must be accompanied by an adult unless otherwise agreed with ourselves. Any accompanying adults are free so when signing up just pay for the Junior Ecologist! We will watch the weather and whilst marine life is not concerned by rain we do understand that this can detract from the fun. Therefore if weather is not suitable we will move indoors for the session. You will be notified of any changes no less than 24 hours ahead of the session. We reinvest all our profits back into work to help local children who would not have the opportunity to take part in activities like marine ecology, learning to SWIM, snorkel, take part in water safety events and more . We could not do it without you so thank you for helping us by taking part in a paid Mulberry Marine Experience. Who is this suitable for?
