🐙 We hosted four different groups over Jan, with two visiting us from overseas (Iowa, US and Shanghai, China) and two epic holiday programmes with .
🐡 Our centre is looking spicy with some gorgeous new underwater prints (thanks to the uber talented photographer ) and info panels showcasing student research. There is more to come so watch this space and head in to sea for yourselves…
📢 REMINDER: Our bookings are ramping up for Feb/March so if you’re a tour, community, retiree, workplace, school/kura group- head over to the DC for an education programme 🤩. Our interactive sessions range from a standard one hour programme to longer 1.5hrs, half-day and full-day programmes across different topics!
