In celebration of Children’s Day, “Marine Biology - Intertidal Explorers” session was conducted under the #Udhuhilan Campaign in partnership with Moodhufilaa Nature School. 
The session began with a guided nature walk, allowing the children to explore and learn about the biodiversity around them. They then visited the intertidal zone, where they safely explored rocky pools and coastal life alongside marine specialists, deepening their understanding of the marine environment and intertidal zonation. Through curiosity, exploration, and hands-on learning, they developed an appreciation for compassion, care, and the importance of creating safe environments for themselves and others.
