S.E.A. Aquarium’s Junior Ocean Protector camp is back for the school holidays.
Children aged seven to 12 can interact with aquarium specialists and divers to learn how they care for marine animals and their habitats.
They will also get rare behind-the-scenes access, such as to the veterinary diagnostic laboratory and the food preparation room.
The camp’s year-end edition has a special focus on sea jellies, so kids can observe their feeding session and pick up interesting facts about them. For instance, did you know that they have four stomachs?

On your next family movie night, catch My Invisible Life. Recommended for students aged 10 to 16, the local film looks at how a teen and a migrant worker defy social expectations to become unlikely friends.
It aims to encourage audiences to look beyond stereotypes, as well as promote greater understanding and appreciation of migrant workers.
“Through fun and entertaining productions, we draw attention to prevailing social issues and encourage thought and discussion about them,” says Ms Priscilla Khong-Espinosa, the film’s executive producer and executive director of non-profit organisation Gateway Arts.
Written by playwright Jean Tay, the 43-minute film is developed as an educational arts programme and available for group bookings by schools and establishments in 2023.
But you and your kids can catch it for free on YouTube until Dec 18, which is International Migrants Day.
