National Aquarium educators can meet your class at Hardinge Road in Napier for a Rocky Shore Study. While there our staff can help you with identification, adaptations, food chains, tidal zones and conservation of the rocky shore residents.
This programme is free of charge for state, integrated or registered private primary and secondary schools.
If you wish you can visit the National Aquarium for follow up activities either on the same day or at a later date (normal school rates apply).
