🙌 That’s a wrap on our planting program on Granite Island and Penguin Education Sessions with local schools, Victor Harbor Primary and Investigator College.

🌱 520 plants in the ground this year to improve habitat on the Island.
🧑‍🎓 120 local students educated and connected to their special, local place, Kaiki, Granite Island.
🐧 We hope the penguins will like the grasses for nesting material. 😉

📣 Special shout out to the Friends of Granite Island for working with us for the third year in a row to educate local children and connect them to this special place. This isn’t possible without our collaboration 🙏

🙏Special thanks to all the teachers and volunteers who made it possible. ❤️🌊 🐧

✋ Hands up if you are drowning in boredom these holidays?

"Mum, I'm bored!" they say again.... and again.... 🙄

Why not come to the Fleurieu Peninsula and see if you can spot our newest residents?! 🐳🐳

Just over a week ago our first calf and cow pair (baby and mummy Southern Right Whales) were spotted at Goolwa Beach and have been sighted there most days ever since! 🥳

🚗 So pack the car
🤳 Check for whale sighting on the South Australian Whale Centre page 😉 and head on down!
