Visit to Cerf Island to look at MCSS Coral restoration project

4 students in Year 7 were invited to join the MCSS team on Cerf Island to look at the projects they have undertaken to restore the coral reef. The trip began with some beach cleaning where the students joined with MCSS staff in a daily clean up to remove plastic pollution from the shoreline. After a snorkelling session in the pool the students went out to the coral reef to see how the newly grown coral was developing. They were impressed with the project and were delighted to be invited to name a new piece of coral which would then be planted on the reef structure. Many thanks to MCSS staff who instructed and inspired the students on this very educational excursion.
