CORAL REEFStoration Ambassador Programme

The "CORAL REEFStoration Ambassador Programme" is supported by Sino Group and Hong Kong Innovation Foundation, in partnership with Ocean Park, Archireef and The Fullerton Ocean Park Hotel.  Students at P4-6 and S1-3 levels are invited to join the programme, where they will learn about the life of corals, their important contribution to marine biodiversity, and how to preserve and protect them for future generations.  The primary and secondary school students will be taught through online seminars delivered by experts, as well as a Grand Aquarium tour at Ocean Park, during which they can have a closer look at the behind-the-scene of the coral ecosystem.  

To encourage students to apply their knowledge and skills in STEAM-related disciplines, they are also required to design a game that can convey the message of coral conservation and raise awareness in schools to compete for places in the next stage. Ten students demonstrating outstanding performance will be selected as "Star CORAL REEFStorator" and continue to learn in-depth knowledge of coral conservation through physical and interactive experiences, such as fun-filled snorkelling, local eco-tour and exciting coral husbandry experiences.
