Introduction
Education is limited and under-resourced in communities that have huge conservation on their doorstep. In South Africa alone townships up in the Kruger national park have never seen a lion and have no awareness of the issues the Big 5 face. Down by the Ocean communities see the sand but never stepped foot and again clueless the impact throwing a plastic bag on the floor can do to our planet and ocean. The only way to tackle this is Education & Awareness.
Report
In response to the national lockdown in 2020, online sessions of our Junior Biologist and Smart Living courses for their Grade 5 and 6 learners was introduced. In 2021, the Foundation expanded its offering, by including taking mobile puppet shows to the Grade 1 to 3 learners, as well as offering our Marine Science Explorer courses to Grade 8 and 9s. These exciting offerings and activities are actually available to children of all ages through the Foundation's educational offerings.
