On Wednesday 13th February 2013 Grades 1, 2 and 3 visited the exhibition Ice Station Antarctica at Hellenic Cosmos. There the children learnt that Antarctica is the coldest, windiest and most remote place on earth. They found the answers to “Can we survive there?” and “How would one feel being there?”
The exhibition Ice Station Antarctica unfolded for them all Antarctica’s secrets through various sources. Through a series of mini-environments they learnt about and explored this unique continent. They braved a variety of exciting Antarctic challenges, from coping in sub-zero temperatures to riding a snowmobile. They explored the skills it takes to work in and preserve this frozen wilderness as they journeyed through the Ice Station Antarctica experience.
Leaving there they had almost become experts in Antarctica – the biggest natural laboratory of humanity!
