If you have children between the ages of 10 and 14 who would love to discover the wonders of the ocean and its influence on life on Earth, then you may be interested in registering them in the Dolphin Quest Ocean Adventure Camp, a series of one-week camps running during mid-term breaks. Students will learn about dolphins and other diverse life forms in the first in a series of unique camps that celebrate marine life and inspire future ocean stewards. Campers will receive five hours of community service credit per week subject to school approval. They will also be inspired and rewarded by a hands on, up-close, in-water Discover Dolphins programme on the last day of camp. The first session will run from Monday, March 30, until Thursday, April 2, while the second session will run from Monday, April 6, until Friday, April 10. Camps will run from 9.30am until 3.30pm, aligned with the ferry schedule, which leaves Hamilton at 9am, returning at 4pm. The cost is a reduced rate of $100 per student as part of Dolphin Quest’s commitment to the community. Your participation in a Dolphin Quest experience supports vital marine conservation, education and research.
