SCHOOL NEWS

Eric and the other winners
walked along the intertidal zone of
exposed rocky shores, looked at
the communities of plants and
animals living on the docks and
pilings and did plankton tows to
filter out the small plants and
animals living in the water.

In the laboratory, the group was
able to examine many marine
creatures under the microscopes
and take a close look at how they
feed, move and escape predators.

The highlights of the weekend
were a visit to a sea lion haul out,
otter trawling to catch bottom fish
and bottom dredging to examine
subtidal sea life.

In addition to the children’s

Lynn Valley McDonalds

calendar

artwork, the calendar will feature
information on marine organisms
and notes on seasonal marine
events, such as the grey whale
migration and the herring spawn.
