Schools
Bring you class on a tour into The Wadden Sea National Park with one of the nature guides of THE WADDEN SEA CENTRE. The activities on the trip in the Wadden Sea is supported with a tour in our exhibition THE MIGRATORY BIRDS' WADDEN SEA. All of your selection of tours out in the National Park is adjusted to the "Fællesmål" (common goals) of the Danish schools. I may also call and have a talk with a nature guide, so we will make a tour adjusted to your specific wishes for learning.
If you are on a camp with tour school class you may find prizes for schools here and practical information about sleeping accommodations etc. in the area etc. may be found here.
Prepare for your visit on www.mitvadehav.dk, where you may find small assignments and film giving a good introduction to the Wadden Sea. REMEMBER to bring: Wellington boots, warm water- and wind resistant clothes, a lunch together with something to drink. In the summer it is a good idea to bring sunscreen, a hat, extra socks and perhaps extra pants.
THE WADDEN SEA CENTRE has 4 all-terrain wheelchairs available for rent to student with handicaps.
