Applications for Fishkeeper Fry close on the 19th of October! Make sure you register your school before it's too late!
This short 8-week programme has been designed to be delivered in the classroom by the schools' teachers. It uses a series of weekly online instructional films, engaging worksheets, and added-value films that provide step-by-step lessons on setting up an aquarium, adding fish and looking after those fish day-to-day.
The resources have been developed to support the National Curriculum and to get children excited about keeping fish and understanding how to care for them responsibly. Participating schools will be provided with their very own free aquarium and all the associated equipment that is used in the programme to enable them to follow along with the films and set up and care for their aquarium in the classroom – all with the support of the expert fishkeepers based at a Maidenhead Aquatics store near to your school.
We even provide a selection of fish for them to enjoy, so the children can see the science of fishkeeping in real life through the mini ecosystem they create, from water chemistry to how fish eat and the nitrogen cycle.
