Antarctica – Cool Science in Action

Listed by: CORE Education

From November 14-20, go to a place that has fascinated explorers and scientists for over 100 years; Antarctica.

Unlike early adventurers you won't be sailing there - you will fly on a C17 Globemaster.

Your friends are Antarctic scientists and other experts. You will join them for meals in the Scott Base dining room. You will sit in on morning meetings to plan the day's activity.

You will complete a survival training course before going out in the field.

Then you will travel across the ice to do some cool science.

Sustainable Wai - Exploring Taupō Freshwater Fishery

Listed by: CORE Education

Full details  

Water quality has been in the news recently, or rather the decline in quality of our rivers and streams. Clean, fresh water is essential to life.

On this trip starting 30 October you will see how quality freshwater drives a significant part of the Lake Taupō local economy. You will join scientists and rangers as they go about their daily work, measuring and recording water quality.

This trip fits well with big ideas like sustainability, water, communities, food webs, environments, bugs, land use, rivers and lakes, recreation and special places. This will be a motivating science and social science trip.
