GRANT HARDY: It's not every
day that an AMI reporter finds
themselves headed to a secluded
village on Canada's west coast.
So why am I, Grant Hardy,
and eight blind and partially
sighted high school students,
along with their vision
teachers, braving a two-hour
bus journey down a bumpy logging
road?
Well, it all has to do with
learning about the sea.
INSTRUCTOR: The ocean is bigger
than you can ever imagine.
SOFEYA DEVJI: It's powerful
and energy like none other.
INSTRUCTOR: It is a place
that is full of life.
And the ocean really is the
lifeblood of this planet.
INSTRUCTOR: If I had to
sum it up in three quick words,
it would be big,
scary, and weird.
GRANT HARDY: This is Sea
School: Marine Science Camp.
CAMRYN MCLEOD: Hi, my
name is Camryn McLeod.
I am in Grade 11, and
I live in Nanaimo, B.C.
I am legally blind.
Stargardt's is a form of
juvenile macular degeneration.
And I see worse out of my right
eye and a little bit better
out of my left eye.
I definitely believe I'm shy
when you first get to know me.
But I do, like, to laugh a lot.
I like to be creative.
I like to go on adventures
and just have fun.
GRANT HARDY: For Camryn,
transitioning to high school
has had its challenges.
CAMRYN MCLEOD:
Walking past students
that don't understand
and just want
to push by you is really
tough, because I'm just trying
to get to class to class.
And then, once I
do get to class,
the teachers that are supposed
to be the most understanding
still struggle to help me
in the ways that I need.
A lot of the time,
they don't even
know how to teach someone
in my position that
can't see the board, that
can't see the projector, that
can't get the same
education as everyone else.
GRANT HARDY: But when Camryn
heard about the opportunity
to attend a week-long marine
science camp specifically
for students with vision
loss, she felt excited.
CAMRYN MACLEOD: For
me, this opportunity
is just so important,
because I can't always
feel like I'm getting
enough out of life living
with a visual impairment.
So, when opportunities
like these come up,
I obviously want to jump for it.
GRANT HARDY: Camryn's
mom Kim Macaulay
has watched her daughter's
isolation in school,
but hopes the camp provides
her with increased confidence.
KIM MACAULAY: Camp's
a bit of an introvert,
and nothing really
gets her too fired up.
So, when the opportunity was
presented to herself to her,
I think she said to herself,
no, it's not for me.
Science isn't my thing.
But it really didn't take
too long where she thought,
you know, I think I might
get something out of this,
and maybe I'll have the
opportunity to experience,
you know, learning science in
a completely different way.
So I'm excited for her to
feel that inclusion instead
of exclusion.
GRANT HARDY: Fellow
parent Camila Stewart
hopes that her son, Grant
Johnson, who is also partially
sighted, feels included during
marine science camp, which
hasn't always been
the case at school.
CAMILA STEWART: A few
of his earlier schools
were basically
negative towards us
and kind of felt like
they didn't really
want him in their schools.
GRANT HARDY: Determined to give
her son more opportunities,
Camila moved with
her kids to Vancouver
so that Grant could get
more assistance at school.
CAMILA STEWART: We
have great supports
at Britannia senior secondary.
Because of them, my son is
becoming more independent.
I'm so proud of him and
I'm really thankful.
GRANT HARDY: For a city kid
like Grant, being at camp
will mean taking a break
from hobbies like gaming
and creating video game puzzles.
However, he is looking
forward to the experience.
GRANT JOHNSON: Seeing like
a bunch of, like, animals,
like, swimming around and,
like, jumping out of the water
and doing some of that
crazy flip or something.
GRANT HARDY: Camila hopes
that marine camp will also
be an opportunity for
Grant to reconnect
with his First Nations
heritage and values.
CAMILA STEWART: Living in
a city, it's hard to be--
to connect with
nature sometimes.
So it's pretty important in
protecting the environment
because everything is connected.
GRANT HARDY: Marine science
camp is the brainchild
of vision teacher Lynne Wales.
Her passion for the ocean
and improved accessibility
to science is why our group
of blind and partially sighted
students, teachers, and
me, find ourselves headed
to the small, isolated
fishing village of Bamfield
on the western edge
of Vancouver Island.
It's also the location of
the Bamfield Marine Sciences
Centre, and, for a week,
we'll all call it home.
Our group settles into the
Bamfield Marine Science Centre
campus and walks up the gravel
main road for an orientation.
ALGEBRA YOUNG: All right.
I see 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 11,
12, 13, 14, 15 people.
GRANT HARDY: Interpreter
Algebra Young kicks things off.
ALGEBRA YOUNG: Welcome
to Bamfield, everybody.
Yeah.
How is the road?
[LAUGHTER]
STUDENT: Really bumpy.
ALGEBRA YOUNG: Yeah,
so 76 kilometres
of raw Canadian
wilderness separates you
from Port Alberny,
the nearest town.
So Bamfield is
really quite small.
GRANT HARDY: The campus
is perched on a cliff top
overlooking the
entrance to two inlets.
Once the terminal station for
the Pacific telegraph cable,
the main campus
building is now home
to a library, offices,
and classroom labs.
CHRIS NEUFELD: So
we were established
48 years ago as a primarily
research institution.
My name is Chris Neufeld.
I'm the Associate Director
of Education at the Bamfield
Marine Sciences Centre.
The goal at that time was for
western Canadian universities
to have a place to be
immersed in the environment
that they were studying
to really raise
the profile of a marine science.
And so the universities that are
partners in the Marine Sciences
Centre are the University of
Alberta, University of Calgary,
University of British Columbia,
Simon Fraser University,
and University of Victoria.
GRANT HARDY: Soon,
the universities
realized that Bamfield's
location held more
possibilities for education.
CHRIS NEUFELD: The biodiversity
is really high here.
The access-- just the access
to this kind of environment
is really rare.
So we have this kind of--
We've got this huge
infrastructure way out here
on the coast at the end
of this logging road.
We've got flow through
seawater in our labs
to be able to hold
on house animals
and to use them for
research and education.
We've got this fleet
of boats and docks
to get us out to these
even more remote places
and actually see some of
these environments firsthand.
And so, over time, our mandate
has grown from just research
to now be much more
inclusive of a number
of different educational
opportunities.
GRANT HARDY: For all those
reasons and more, including
the Centre's on-site
lodging and meals,
vision teacher Lynn Wales
thought it the perfect location
for the camp.
However, it took strong
advocacy from Lynn
to convince the Marine Science
Centre to greenlight this trip.
Having a group of blind
and partially sighted
high school students
was a new experience.
And, at first, there
were some concerns.
CHRIS NEUFELD: One
of the things that I
think makes these
experiences out here
so valuable is that we are
out in the middle of nowhere,
and that we're really
immersed in these sometimes
challenging environments.
And so the first
question was just,
you know, how can we
accommodate this group
to make sure that they can have
those kinds of experiences,
and do it safely and accessibly?
GRANT HARDY: But,
according to Lynn,
once the troop was
approved, Bamfield
went out of their way
to be accommodating.
LYNN WALES: Bamfield's
been world-class.
They're really keen to
collaborate with us.
They're really keen
to support students
who are here learning through
different means of vision.
They've been open to
us Brailling and making
copies of things in large
print, bringing and sending
tactile different
resources for the students
to be able to put their
hands on and really
get a sense of things, such
as well tales, for instance.
So Bamfield has been wonderful.
And all of their
instructors, for instance,
have asked questions
ahead of time.
What's the best way we can
support the students' learning?
Is there anything that we
should know ahead at times?
So they've been really
really keen to see
this program take off.
GRANT HARDY: Our orientation
ends with an inclusive art
activity.
ALGEBRA YOUNG:
Specifically, we're
doing slightly biologically
minded art activity.
We're doing something
called yotaku,
yo meaning fish and
taku meaning print.
Which means we're going
to take some fish,
put some paint on
them, and smack him
against a piece of paper.
So these were real
fish at a time.
They were immersed into a
mould and then pulled out.
And then they threw a
bit of silicone in there,
and now you have a fish
that is not a real fish
but looks just like one.
GRANT HARDY: It was simple.
Just add some paint
to the silicone fish.
When ready, press a paper or
fabric against it and voila,
you have a colorful
fish imprint.
Camryn thought it was a
fun and accessible way
to kick off the camp.
CAMRYN MCLEOD: I like
it because you can really
express your creativity and it
doesn't have to be perfect art.
It's just for fun.
Because, in high school, most
art classes are very detail
orientated and they
don't even think
about all the
different kinds of art
that you can do tactile
in different ways
because they just
focus on, like,
the detail and the precise art.
And so it's really fun to
do something different.
GRANT HARDY: Algebra
was really thrilled
to be working with
this group of teens.
ALGEBRA YOUNG: I
was really impressed
that they were able to throw
down the way that they did.
I don't have to worry
about these kids.
GRANT HARDY: With
that done, it was
time to turn in for our first
night at Marine Science camp.
CALLEAN MEREDITH:
In this lab, we're
going to be talking about
marine invertebrate diversity.
Who knows what that means?
GRANT HARDY: Day 2, our
group gathers in the building
known as the Whale Lab.
Its flow through
sea water system
provides a steady hum
as vital ocean water
is pumped through the homes of
various marine invertebrates,
which, according to Bamfield
interpreter Callean Meredith,
is the topic of our first lab.
CALLEAN MEREDITH: I'm
going to be talking today
about animals that don't have
spines, that live in the ocean,
and a variety of them.
We're going to split
up into three groups.
I'll be with one group, Maria
will be with another group,
and Julie will be
with the third group.
GRANT HARDY: It's an opportunity
for each group of students,
vision teachers,
and interpreters,
to get some hands on
time with creatures
such as sea stars, sponges,
sea cucumbers, crabs,
and sea anemones. Camryn's
troops meet an anemone.
Its soft circular
body sprouts what
seemed to be harmless
looking tentacles.
CALLEAN MEREDITH: The
tentacles what are essentially
tiny harpoons that they
use to eat and also
to defend themselves.
STUDENT: And they
kind of grab onto them
and just kind of slowly
move them into the centre.
CALLEAN MEREDITH: Yeah Yeah.
They'll grab onto them and
move them into the centre.
And they've got their
mouth on the centre.
And their mouth has
basically just a big hole
down the middle of the body.
GRANT HARDY: Another
group checks out sea stars
with interpreter Maria.
MARIA: So this one is
called a blood star
because of the colour.
This is something I'
found out recently.
I'm going to make you
guys smell this one.
Tell me-- oh, yeah.
Tell me if you can figure
out what it smells like.
Get in there, like,
really sniff it.
Give it a good sniff.
STUDENT: Smells like, oh, it
smells like some kind of food.
MARIA: It does, yep.
It's a kind of food.
STUDENT: Like jerky almost.
GRANT HARDY: Camryn's
gang meets an animal
that resembles a basic
household item, the sponge.
CALLEAN MEREDITH: They have
little holes in their bodies
that they suck water through
and they filter feed.
So they'll take in little bits
of animals and algae and stuff
like that, and they'll
eat that and then filter
the rest of the water
back out of them.
STUDENT: This one feels
like an actual sponge
that you, like, clean with.
GRANT HARDY:
According to Callean,
the interpreters made
slight changes to the lab
to better serve the students.
CALLEAN MEREDITH: I think
a greater emphasis on touch
is incredibly valuable.
Typically what we'll do, we'll
do a fair bit of board work
at the beginning.
So, instead of that,
we did more of the work
at the stations, which I
think in some ways was better
because it allowed more
individual interaction
with instructors
and the students.
GRANT HARDY: Of course, the
labs aren't the traditional home
for these creatures.
CALLEAN MEREDITH: A
lot of the animals
that we'll be
looking at, you'll be
able to find in the intertidal.
You'll be able to find
them on the rocky beaches.
On the shore, yeah, on
the part of the shore
that is underwater at
least some of the time.
GRANT HARDY: It just
so happens that there's
a nearby beach that fits just
that description, Aguilar
Beach.
So, wearing life
jackets, it was time
to get to the docks and
boat across the inlet
to west Banfield.
Interpreter Maria leads
the way on the other side.
Due to the threat
of a powerful rogue
wave crashing onto
the rocky beach
and pulling us into the
sea, wearing life jackets
was mandatory.
It's one of the few things Maria
asked us to keep in mind as we
were about to start
exploring, each student
paired with a vision teacher.
MARIA: Do not pick
up a raft bigger
than the size of your head, OK?
You'll probably
drop it immediately.
And there's a lot of
things living under there
that you will crush
immediately if you do that.
And if you do pick
up a rock, make
sure you put it back the
same way you picked it up.
Excited?
ALL: Yeah
MARIA: All right, your
teachers are excited.
TOM: Have fun.
GRANT HARDY: As
promised, mixed in
amongst the rocks and seaweed
with little pools of seawater.
TOM: And then this is
another hermit crab here.
GRANT HARDY: Banfield
interpreter Tom picks one up
to show Grant.
TOM: Flip himself over.
And he's got little blue feet.
Looks like he's
about to jump off.
GRANT JOHNSON: I'll
catch him if he does.
GRANT HARDY: Vision
teacher Kerry Barclay
uses a smartphone to aid her
student, Samantha Sorenson.
SAMANTHA SORENSON: Like,
I can see things close up.
And I can see things around me.
I just can't see far away.
And I can't see details.
KERRY BARCLAY: So using
that iPhone is perfect.
She's able to zoom in and
use the zoom feature on it
to actually see further
than what she can.
GRANT HARDY:
Student Haley Olinyk
wants to pursue a
career in marine biology
and really dug the
beach exploration.
HALLEY OLINYK: We got to
find a few sea anemones.
I found a lot of sea stars,
which was really exciting,
since I've always loved them.
Being from interior
BC, we'd never
have these kind of animals.
And even just hearing and
smelling the ocean is like one
of my favourite things.
[CHUCKLE]
GRANT HARDY: I gotta
agree with Halley,
taking in the sea was great,
though the terrain gave my cane
skills a real workout, which,
according to Lynn Wales,
is part of the idea.
LYNN WALES: The
more opportunities
we can expose the students
to, the more experiences,
the more places
we can take them,
will enhance their overall
education experience.
GRANT HARDY: And
those opportunities
will just keep on coming
as our day winds down.
Tomorrow promises even
more challenging terrain.
OWEN NEWSON: Did everyone
make it into the forest?
STUDENT: Uf, I think so.
OWEN NEWSON: Haven't
lost anyone on the way?
GRANT HARDY: Another
day and, for some,
another new experience.
OWEN NEWSON: Welcome to the
coastal temperate rainforest.
GRANT HARDY: BC's coastal
mountains cause precipitation,
which, as interpreter
Owen Newson points out,
leaves behind damp, wet,
and muddy rainforests.
OWEN NEWSON: Wet roots are
quite slippery and dangerous.
If you jump onto a root,
your foot might slip off
and then you might
fall on the ground.
So we're going to
move very carefully
through the rainforest.
GRANT HARDY: Student
and vision teacher pairs
navigate the tricky terrain.
At times, deep
puddles threatened
to slosh into gum shoes.
CAMRYN MACLEOD: I'm surprised
my teeth didn't get wet.
GRANT HARDY: Like
the others, Camryn
was glad to have come
prepared with her rain gear.
CAMRYN MACLEOD: Yeah,
the weather today
it's pretty rainy out.
It could be worse,
but it's not too bad.
I looked up a couple times
and, like, a bunch of drops
fell off the branches
of the trees.
GRANT HARDY: Some of
the surrounding forest
is made up of cedars and
western hemlock trees.
Owen notices a decaying log.
OWEN NEWSON: There's all kinds
of things living on this log.
So various species of moss.
There's probably
some lichen on here
as well, the beginnings
of some slough bushes.
GRANT HARDY: With a patch day
ahead, it was time to sludge
through the muck and head back.
The rain forest and ocean
are both complex ecosystems
and are in a dynamic
relationship with each other.
It's complex, intricate, and in
danger from human activities.
INSTRUCTOR: I'm going
to walk you over
to-- towards this canoe here.
GRANT HARDY: Which is why
we headed to Pachena Bay
to see the impact of plastics
in the ocean firsthand.
Interpreter Owen
explains our part.
OWEN NEWSON: What we
do want to try and do
is we make your way along the
beach is look for garbage--
big pieces, small pieces,
anything we can find.
I know you guys brought
some garbage bags.
We'll see if this dog
follows us or not.
INSTRUCTOR: Pick a partner.
One is going to pick up.
One is going to haul
the garbage bag.
And then you're going to
switch about halfway down.
GRANT HARDY: As we begin
or track down the beach,
Camryn immediately notices
differences from the last one.
CAMRYN MACLEOD: Well, the last
beach, it was really cool.
There was lots of rocks.
There was kind of hard
to navigate around.
But we did find a lot
of cool creatures.
But I really like this beach
because it's nice and open,
and the wind is
blowing in your face.
And up there, where it was
dry, we got to touch the sand
and feel, like, how soft it was.
And down here, it gets
a little more muddy.
But it's still really
fun to play in.
GRANT HARDY: At
first glance, what
appeared to be a picturesque
beach soon yielded
some toxic treasures.
STUDENT: This looks like
part of a bottle lid.
STUDENT: Here's another
piece every over here.
This is everywhere
once you start looking.
STUDENT: Oh, a toothbrush.
STUDENT: Yeah.
STUDENT: nasty.
GRANT HARDY: Although some of
the junk was delivered by surf,
others were clearly
from local activity.
Student Halley Olinyk.
HALLEY OLINYK: We found
one burnt up campsite,
it looks like, where
somebody had a fire,
and they had thrown their
beer cans and stuff in there.
So we had to get in there, pick
up all the little sharp metal
bits and some broken glass.
And that was really sad.
GRANT HARDY: After walking
one kilometre of the seemingly
clear sandy beach, each pair had
collected nearly half a garbage
bag worth of garbage.
Owen explains the
damage plastics
have on the marine ecosystem.
OWEN NEWSON: So plastic
doesn't really decompose.
It does break down,
but it only breaks down
into small pieces of plastic.
So it doesn't actually decompose
into its chemical constituent
parts.
Those microplastics
can be so tiny
that even plankton can eat them.
And then they accumulate all
the way up through a food chain.
So whatever eats the
plankton would then have
that plastic in its stomach.
And then whatever eats that,
and so on and so forth.
And what's at the top
of the food chain?
GRANT HARDY: For Halley, it's a
message that really hits home.
HALLEY OLINYK: Oh, it
makes me so sad, so sad.
I want to work with animals
from the ocean stuff,
and when scientists
find a dead bird,
and they can get into the
guts and suddenly find
all those pieces of plastic,
because they can't digest it.
So it just sits in there
and probably poisons them.
It's really sad.
And yeah, it kind
of shows, like,
drives at home with even being
on our coasts, on the BC coast.
So that sucks and it hurts.
It hurts my heart a lot.
GRANT HARDY: It's a
sobering experience
that might keep some of us
awake tonight as we close out
another day in Banfield.
HALLEY OLINYK: Who remembers
what a cetacean is?
STUDENT: Whales.
HALLEY OLINYK: Yeah,
whales and dolphins.
GRANT HARDY: Another new day
and onto another new lesson.
Today's topic, marine mammals.
When it comes to the
sea, marine mammals
really capture the imagination.
Interpreter Mikasa Quaife
talked to the group
about a range of mammals
that live in the ocean,
including sea otters, walruses,
and the always popular whales.
HALLEY OLINYK: And so we
have two types of cetaceans.
We have the Odontocetes
and the Mysticetis.
Odontocetes are the tooth
whales and the Mysticetis
are the baleen whales.
GRANT HARDY: The presentation
includes opportunities
to get hands on with
bones and baleen,
the special cartilage
filters most large whales
use to filter feed.
INSTRUCTOR: The bone is hollow.
The jaw bone is hollow.
It's focused to receive and
focused in transmitting sound
to the ear bone.
GRANT HARDY: Mikasa mentions
something that generates
anticipation in the group.
MIKASA QUAIFE: Right now,
we have a lot of grey whales
around here because-- and
they're there together,
but that's because they are
all feeding and the same thing
on the herring spot.
GRANT HARDY: With an ocean
exploration as our next
activity, there's hope that we
can luck out and see some grey
whales in the wild.
So, once again, it was
time to pop on our jackets,
slather on our sunscreen,
and hit the docks.
DAVE: My name's Dave.
I'll be your skipper
for the next two hours.
Today is going to be a fun trip.
The weather is beautiful,
sunny, and fairly calm.
GRANT HARDY: Our vessel,
the Barclay Star,
is a 10 metre high
speed aluminum boat.
Its enclosed pilot's
cabin offers protection
from the wind and spray.
I and a few brave souls
sit-in the rear exposed area,
thankful for our extra
layers of clothing.
Whales may be large, but the
ocean is much, much bigger,
making them hard to find.
But, along the way,
Dave cuts the engine.
Something even more
elusive is spotted.
STUDENT: Yay!
This is my second
ever sea otter.
LYNN WALES: It's just off
maybe about 50 metres away
from the boat on the right side.
GRANT HARDY: With hopes that the
otter sighting is a good omen,
we continued onward.
Soon we reached our
destination, not far
off the shore of the beach.
According to interpreter
Olivia Walker,
the whales use a unique
method to gather herring spawn
from such shallow sites.
OLIVIA WALKER: So
they get into, like,
two, three metres of water,
and they scrape their mouths
on the bottom the ocean.
And they pick up all the
sediment, and all these fish,
and all these invertebrates,
and also the eggs.
And then they filter out
what they don't want.
So they spit out the
sediment in the water
and they keep all
the good stuff.
GRANT HARDY: At the front of
the boat, Lynn spots a bloat.
INSTRUCTOR: Woo, I just saw it.
So it's on the right
side of the boat.
I just saw the bloat come up.
GRANT HARDY: When the
whales come up to breathe,
their blow holes release a
jet of moist air and water.
Students and teachers
gather with cameras, bones,
and visual aids at
the ready, hoping
to capture glimpses of
fins, backs, and tails.
STUDENT: Amazing
[INTERPOSING VOICES]
STUDENT: So straight ahead,
right by the beach line.
INSTRUCTOR: We are
surrounded, team.
STUDENT: There, I think--
I think there's about six
or eight whales, actually.
INSTRUCTOR: So the grey whales
aren't quite as charismatic
as the humpback whales, and
they don't really jump up
and slapped down like
the humpbacks do.
GRANT HARDY: But one whale
decided to prove Olivia wrong.
INSTRUCTOR: This is the
perfect day for you guys.
[EXCLAMATIONS]
STUDENT: That was awesome.
STUDENT: That was phenomenal.
STUDENT: That was so cool.
GRANT HARDY: With their time
up, Dave kicked on the engines
and we made our way
back to the main campus.
For Camryn, getting close to
the grey whales was a real
highlight.
CAMRYN MACLEOD: Yeah, we got
to see some of their fins,
and it was really cool because
they were laying on their side
and they were diving a bit.
And so, yeah.
But mostly, we got
to listen to them,
which was really interesting.
They were probably like
100 to, like, 100 metres
like away from the boat.
So I was surprised
that they weren't
like scared of us at all.
GRANT HARDY: Lynn
was happy to share
her passion with the group.
LYNN WALES: Every time we
see whales, it's exciting.
Every time I'm able
to see a marine mammal
in its natural environment, I
often find I catch my breath.
And I love the sense
of how small I feel.
GRANT HARDY: Although
marine camp's been fun,
there's also schoolwork.
Each day ends with
Camryn and the others
writing journals assisted
by their teachers.
CAMRYN MACLEOD: So
I can to say, like,
in the morning, half of the
day we did this and this,
and it made me feel
like this because we
did that, and this and that.
INSTRUCTOR: Yeah, that would be
a fine way of approaching it.
CAMRYN MACLEOD: OK.
GRANT HARDY: And the entire week
ends with student presentations
highlighting what they
learned, like Grant,
who didn't realize that
commercial whaling was still
happening.
GRANT JOHNSON: I didn't
know that they're used,
like, fats, like, they're used
for meat, oil, and baleen.
GRANT HARDY: The
presentations end
with the heartfelt
thanks to organizers Lynn
and fellow vision
teacher Sofeya Devji,
who has really impressed
by these students.
SOFEYA DEVJI: We are meant
to be out of our comfort
zones, every single one of us.
The instructors in the
program, the teachers,
though the visually impaired,
the orientation mobility
specialists, and the students.
We all had to struggle
at some point.
And that's what
learning is about.
LYNN WALES: I really
hope the student would
feel at the end of this
week is that they belong
in science, that science is
something that they can access,
that is interesting, that
it has a place for them.
GRANT HARDY: It's clear that
the approach to teaching
has evolved since I
was in high school.
Seeing students
like Camryn finish
marine science camp
beaming with confidence
proves that learning
outside the classroom
in an inclusive
environment is important.
We all benefit when
barriers to science
come down, allowing people with
all abilities to contribute.
After all, the sea is big
and there's still so much
to learn about the ocean.
For a weekn in Banfield,
a group of students
who normally feel left
out of science were let in
and, as we leave, I'm certain
that some future scientists
leave with us.
