Project Seagrass Talk

On Tuesday, years 7 and 8 had a talk from Project Seagrass – a global charity that is aiming to save, protect and plant more seagrass in order to protect marine life habitats and combat climate change. They do a lot of work on the Isle of Wight because the north of the island is very seagrass rich.

The students took part in a quiz about seagrass and it’s importance, as well as hearing how they could get involved in the project on the island by volunteering, snorkelling, or even taking pictures of seagrass and uploading it to the seagrass spotter app so the charity can identify the seagrass meadows around the UK. The students were very engaged by the talk which sparked many conversations about getting involved with future work with Project Seagrass.
