After-school programs

Sea Smart’s in-person after school programs are currently on hold. Are you a business owner interested in sponsoring this program? Contact us here

The great news is, that your kids can learn about our amazing ocean from home with our online program Ocean Defender or tell your child’s teacher about our school workshops!

About our after-school programs

Our Vancouver extracurricular activities use fun hands-on games and activities to teach kids about different marine animals, cool ocean science, the threats impacting these animals and simple actions we can take to help. We also nurture kids in their development of essential life skills like teamwork, leadership, critical thinking and problem-solving. Our inquiry-based curriculum fulfills the new BC Ministry of Education requirements, all while empowering the kids to make the world a better place while having lots of fun!  Examples of our programs are listed below:

Previous after-school programs

  • Cool Critters

    The ocean is teeming with so many cool critters including glass sponge reefs, seahorses and sharks! This term we will investigate how sea levels rising, oil spills and ocean acidification affect these critters and what we can do to help!

  • Coastal Connections

    This spring program is completely outside at the beach or forest next to your child’s school! Students will investigate the biodiversity of the area, inquire about the connection between the forest and the ocean and build critical thinking and leadership skills.
