Science Festival: Marine Microbes - The Ocean's Superheroes
Are you brave enough to dive into the world of marine microbes? Get ready to explore the hidden world of these tiny creatures and learn why they are actually the ocean's smallest superheroes!
Did you know that there are more bacteria in the ocean than stars in the sky?
In this workshop, you will play fun games to see how many microbes live in the sea, learn about biodiversity, and why it is so important for our planet to have many different kinds of microbes. You'll also get to look at real microbes under a microscope and watch them grow on agar plates as tiny, colourful works of art.
Get ready to explore the hidden world of these tiny creatures and learn why they are actually the ocean's smallest superheroes!
