World Ocean Day for Schools

World Ocean Day for Schools provides educators with the inspiration, resources & activities to engage their students in more meaningful conversations about the ocean. Since its launch in 2018, World Ocean Day for Schools has focused on increasing ocean literacy in schools. We’ve evolved from a small-scale event with 400 schools to an interactive online festival with over 100k users. We’re proud to be a UN Ocean Decade endorsed project.

This year at World Ocean Day for Schools, we’re exploring blue careers. We want kids to know that, no matter where they live or what skills they have, they can work in ocean conservation. We’ll be introducing them to a crew of amazing individuals around the world who will share their stories, answer questions and hopefully, make kids think: wow, that could be me.

Registration is free, and everything you need – teacher toolkits, lesson plans and worksheets- is downloadable on our website. All you need to do is add your local blue space to the map, and you’ll be good to go!
