Schools & Communities

Opportunities for schools and groups


Estuary 2021 programme is based across the whole estuary community and we are actively working with Local Authority partners

In North Kent:-
Gravesham, Medway and Kent County Council

In South Essex:-
Southend on Sea, Basildon and Thurrock Councils.

In each area, we have a number of opportunities for schools, community groups and interested individuals to Get Involved.
Next year, Covid 19 allowing, we will also be announcing opportunities for schools and groups to book onto a limited number of workshops and guided tours of Estuary 2021 programme at some of our outdoor locations.

The Water Replies:-
Fantastic opportunity to take part in our creative writing and poetry programme for schools, teachers and young people.  Please find all the details HERE


If you are interested to hear more about these opportunities, sign up to our e-newsletter, or alternatively email us at [email protected]
