There is no better maritime outdoor classroom than Canada's Bay of Fundy. Twice a day the tide at the mouth of the Bay rise and fall eight meters stirring up nutrients that have drifted to the ocean floor.
Join us as we explore this unique environment and the diversity of life it supports. What we catch and collect is what we will study, draw, paint and cook!
Time is also set aside to share ideas on how to adapt our marine examples to your own classroom.
Date: July 16-20, 2012 Location: The Huntsman Marine Science Centre - 1 Lower Campus Road, St. Andrews, New Brunswick
Early bird discount if registered before May 16.
