For Schools

School Programs That Make Waves
Beach School Days:
Our hands-on, curriculum-linked sessions bring environmental learning to life right at the shore.

The Schools Project: A deeper dive into eco-education with a half-term program delivered directly in classrooms. We blend in-class theory with our Ocean Protector club activities, making it accessible to all students, even those who can’t join our regular beach sessions. We support up to six schools annually with this tailored program.

School Visits: Whenever possible, we bring our workshops, talks, and assemblies to schools across Cornwall and Devon, inspiring young minds through engaging environmental education.
