New Taipei Coral Elementary School learns about marine life

Today, the millionaire family signed up for the Coral Elementary School held by the New Taipei City Government. The New Taipei City Government and Associate Professor Shimonoya Shimono of the Institute of Marine Environment and Ecology of National Taiwan Ocean University (from Japan) jointly restored corals. The ocean is the origin of life, but due to global warming, the seawater temperature rises, and the survival of corals in the sea is threatened. Excessive water temperature will cause corals to bleach or even disappear. Once corals die, the marine ecology will face a huge impact. I hope that through today's lesson, Little Rich can learn more about the importance of marine resources. Let's take a look at today's free event.

activity description

Free parking is available at the entrance of the building, which is very convenient for self-driving friends. The New Taipei City Marine Resources Restoration Park is roughly divided into three parts: teaching buildings, laboratories and outdoor breeding areas.

Some coral decorations and coral restoration explanations in the teaching building explain in detail the methods of coral cultivation and the source of corals in the restoration park. The teacher in class said that coral can grow 4-5 centimeters a year, which is quite fast, but unfortunately it destroys faster.

indoor courses

The class starts at 10:30 am. First, we will learn about the basic structure of corals, the various corals commonly found in the northeast corner, the life of corals, the challenges they face, coral polyps and their relatives and friends, and the importance of the ocean. Rich Man feels that the course content is rich and diversified, but not difficult, making it suitable for children to participate. It also echoes the previous discussion that the wealthy family participated inSanzhi Beach Cleanup Activities.

An exquisite class textbook. The textbook is well designed and provides a complete introduction to the knowledge of various corals. There are also coral ecological squares that will be used after class. Children can draw what they like on the ecological squares. The little rich man said that he drew a chariot (laughing). This coral elementary school activity is really considerate of the children. It is very good. .

Free Fulong Pork Ribs Bento is provided for lunch, with 4.5 kinds of side dishes that are very delicious. The little rich man ate a lot.

Coral Restoration Experience

After taking a short break for lunch, at 12:30 we came to the highlight of the day – coral restoration!

First of all, the teachers will introduce the various corals commonly found in the northeast corner of Taiwan, such as calyx-shaped pillar corals, microporous corals, fan corals, etc. We also asked the participating friends to touch various corals with their hands. To be honest, the touch of each coral is really different, soft or hard. Finally, coral branching and planting takes place. Under the light, various corals and sea anemones, some of which reflect fluorescent colors due to the chemicals on their bodies, are really beautiful and have a psychedelic feeling, which is very special.

Everyone who participated has tied the branched corals to the colorful coral ecological cubes. Today's restoration work is considered complete.

There is also a marine life touching area next to it. There are all kinds of starfish and sea anemones to experience, but I really don’t like the soft and slimy millionaire (laughs). The children were so enthusiastic that some sea anemones were touched and even vomited out their intestines. It's pitiful, but you should be gentler.

outdoor area

Finally, we came to the outdoor breeding area. A large area breeds a variety of fish, shrimp, crabs and other marine life. There was actually feed provided for the children to feed. Every child really had a great time and threw a lot of feed into the breeding pond. They should be able to eat a lot today.

After returning to the teaching building, there is the final level-breaking game! Feeding sea anemones is quite fun. The little rich man actually succeeded in watching again and again. It seems that he really took the class seriously, which is very good. Before the end of the event, there was an award ceremony for successfully completing the level, which was a perfect ending.

rich man experience

The teachers said that the corals in the New Taipei City Marine Resources Restoration Park actually come from the epiphytic corals in the nearby abalone breeding ponds. They were transplanted and studied by the National Oceanic University in Taiwan. It is also another kind of industry-university cooperation. The rich man highly recommends it to children. Come to participate. Although the content of the class is not difficult, the rich man feels that it would be more suitable for children above grade 1 of elementary school to attend.

I also met some friends from Hong Kong that day, which was really good national diplomacy. Free parking is provided on site, which is very convenient for those who drive by themselves. Friends who take public transportation can take the free "Happiness Bus" and get off at the "Ocean Restoration Park" station. After getting off, you can walk to the Marine Resources Restoration Park in about 10 minutes.

The rich man also did some homework. According to Greenpeace, Taiwan accounts for about one-third of the world's coral reef species. Among the 700 species of stony corals in the world, 250 species are found along the coast of Taiwan. Therefore, Taiwan is known as the "Coral Kingdom". I hope that this meal and this event will make the young rich more aware of environmental protection and further protect the ocean. As long as Saving energy, reducing carbon, and saving water can all contribute to protecting marine life, come on!
