The teachers explored the physical coast and the processes that shape it and gained an insight into the marine wildlife and rare shingle habitat.

Mr Savage said: “We received some very positive feedback from the teachers and we are already looking to next year’s Marine Day and would love to hear from any schools that might be interested to attend to suggest ideas for next year’s programme”.
