Hello Team Aqua Sealion and Banana Octopi parents!
We had an amazing official last day of aquacamps!
We started off with the leader skit. The Seavengers had to take on Thanos who was determined to warm up the earth and snap half of the world's life out of existence. Unfortunately Thanos retrieved all of the infinity stones and was able to snap half of our heroes out of existence. Would the Seavengers be able to stop him?
After snack we went to our second 4D movie called a Reef Reborn and learned about marine protected areas and enjoyed our Shoreline Cleanup commercial. Oh oh Geronimo!
Then we went on a plankton tow and got to see the plankton we collected under a microscope. We found a skeleton shrimp! Nathan taught us about zooplankton and phytoplankton and the importance of them in food chains.
We had lunch inside today, and enjoyed some puppet shows by our leaders in blue.
After lunch we went on a sea wall walk and made a whale craft.
We finished off our day with the ending to our leader skit. Thanos and his army of minions were defeated and the world was saved from climate change.
And of course we had to sing the axolotl song!
Questions to ask your camper:
- What was your favourite part of camp this week?
- What is the difference between phytoplankton and zooplankton? How do plankton impact our food chains?
It was so great having you guys at aquacamps this year. We had so much fun! Please don't forget to fill out the surveys. That's a wrap on aquacamps for the summer! Hope you all have a great school year.
