Ocean Warriors Beach School

Today We donated 4 copies of Ocean Warriors Plastic in Paradise to the Selpele Village school as part of Atlas Pearls new Ocean Warriors beach school program. The program, combining team building exercises, ocean and environmental education and beach cleaning was very well received by all the teachers and students.  We talked about the importance of keeping our oceans free from marine debris, read Ocean Warriors Plastic in Paradise, and cleaned the beach near their school.  At the end of the morning, all our beach cleaners took home a sticker from Trash Hero Indonesia!

Ocean Warriors Plastic in Paradise: Distribution #1 KUKUSAN VILLAGE

We teamed up with Trash Hero Komodo to do a beach clean and distribute the first copies of Ocean Warriors Plastic in Paradise to the kids in Kukusan Village.

And it was awesome.

We gathered the kids of Kukusan Village school (where we made our 3rd library collection) to clean up the area around their school and the village coast line.  The kids do this every week with Trash Hero Komodo and love it.  It creates such a great feeling of team spirit doing this work for their community and there are always a lot of smiles and a lot of excitement!

This week the we gave all the participants of the clean up a copy of Ocean Warriors Plastic in Paradise.  We read it to the kids in both English and Indonesian and then worked with them to write down different ways they can be an Ocean Warrior. (Being a Trash Hero is one fantasic way!!!)

I must say it was quite a buzz seeing the kids reaction to the book first hand and watching them enjoy something that I helped to create.

Thank you so much for all your kids donations that make these book donations possible.  You are SO appreciated!
