Seaweek 2026

Join this FREE English and Science workshop with the Australian National Maritime Museum. Follow the journey of a bottle cap dropped in a school playground as it travels into the drain, through the sewers and out to the ocean.

Develop your storytelling superpowers and be inspired by real-life examples of sustainability initiatives to help re-write a rubbish ending.

Dive into the science of the sea with this show all about the deep blue! Join us in exploring what our ocean is like, how living things have adapted to it, and the threat that it’s under.

Join Fizzics Education as we look at the crushing pressure of the deep, the wonder of bioluminescence and the peril of ocean acidification!

Challenge yourself and test your knowledge this Seaweek.

SeaWeek gives us a fantastic opportunity to promote educational issues of relevance to the marine environment.

Team up with friends and join our online Marine Science Trivia for kids.

Dive in deep with the Australian National Maritime Museum to explore each of the five ocean zones and discover what makes them a unique habitat.

Investigate each layer of the ocean and discuss its environmental conditions, the species that have adapted to survive there and the technologies used to explore it.

Ready for an ocean adventure without leaving your classroom?

Join us for an interactive virtual excursion and dive into the amazing world of the NSW marine estate!

Explore sandy beaches, rocky shores, estuaries, and seagrass beds – all from your screen.

Questacon is excited to bring you Under the Sea: Coral Reefs, a FREE webinar for SeaWeek.

In this 60-minute webinar, students will be making their own reef models, exploring the properties of different materials to use underwater, and learning about some of the different ways people study reefs around Australia.

Learn about corals as the builders of the Reef, and the roles that various organisms play within the Reef community. Gain an understanding of the importance of various relationships between organisms such as corals and their symbiotic algae, and anemones and anemonefish. Explore the simple actions that you can take, regardless of where you live, to help protect the Great Barrier Reef and the animals that call it home.

Did you know that without oceans, neither dinosaurs nor humans would exist? From the first bacteria to the towering dinosaurs of the Mesozoic, Earth’s oceans have shaped life for billions of years! Australia is home to some of the planet’s earliest life forms – stromatolites – ancient bacteria that pumped oxygen into the oceans, making life as we know it possible.

Join the Australian Age of Dinosaurs team to discover how oceans have kept life going for billions of years – and why they’re still the key to our future!

Ready to explore one of NSW’s most fascinating but overlooked marine habitats… without even getting wet?!

Join us for an exciting webinar where you’ll dive into the NSW Oyster Reef Restoration and Research Project and uncover how scientists are working with local communities to bring these hidden gems back to our estuaries.

These oyster reefs once stretched along our coastline providing a wealth of benefits, and now they’re being restored so they can play their vital ecological role again

Develop your knowledge of marine life identification and Reef monitoring techniques as we introduce Reef health indicator species and discuss their importance on the Great Barrier Reef.
