WWF SUMMER SCHOOL 2019

Summer School is a fun and exciting way for kids to learn about our city’s unique ecosystems. Held during the summer break in July and August, WWF- organises planned nature activities for groups aged 6-11. With classmates and friends, the groups discover the richness of the natural world, the importance of conserving it and the effects of our daily lifestyle choices on these environments. Our curriculum based activities are run by our educators at our three centres in Mai Po Nature Reserve, Hoi Ha Marine Life Centre and Island House Conservation Studies Centre.
