What is a coral? Visit The Deep this half term (28 May – 5 June) and find out exactly that!
As we celebrate the Platinum Jubilee, join our crew as we explore tropical coral reefs and how they have changed over the last 70 years. Through interactive demonstrations and fin’tastic activities. Discover what makes a healthy/unhealthy reef and the impacts of the changing PH of the oceans and the small changes we can all make to have a positive impact on coral reefs for future generations. Stop by Craft Corner and help us colour in some lovely corals which we will use to build a colourful reef. Don’t miss the chance to make your very own fridge magnet to take home (£2 donation). The Coral Reef event is included in standard ticket entry, no additional booking is required. Prebooking is essential for all visits. ‘Sea’ you soon! |
