SECONDARY school
students in Inishowen are getting a chance to study
one of the largest fish in the sea as part of a
unique 'Shark Camp 2013'.
The young oceanography interns will take part in the
free project run by the Irish Basking Shark Study
Group in Malin Head from July 29-August 9.
Facilitator Rosemary McCloskey said the course will
help teenagers interested in marine science and
conservation to boost their CVs in a fun
environment.
"Each Shark Camp intern will learn marine biology
skills, carry out hands-on fieldwork on the shore
and on boats, learn skills in multimedia and video
editing and will learn about their marine heritage
and potential careers in the marine field" said Ms
McCloskey. |
