A great and meaningful day as we went to Hel, which for our guests sounded ambiguous to say the least. Hel Penisnsula turned out to be a real heaven, though. It was all thanks to the beautiful weather, the Baltic Sea and great atmosphere.

We visited ,,The Blue School'' where we participated in educational activities connected with marine life and environmental issues.

​

First, we took part in some experiments. We measured high blood pressure in normal circumstances and then with our heads in water. The results were quite intesresting, especially in the case on one student.

Then we had a great pleasure of watching how the seals were being fed. We also learned a lot about the inhabitants of the seal; shelter in Hel.

​

Then we went for a walk by the sea and faced real challenge, namely ....a haul. This is the technique of trying to catch some little marine creatures . To do that, the students had to get dressed into special clothes and go into water. That demanded lots of courage but they were successful and even caught some .... shrimps (it turned out that there are 3 types of them in the Baltic Sea !!!).
