MARINE
EDUCATION
CENTRE
“Step out of the bay and into
the Williamstown Marine
Education Centre”
Our Mission
“To inspire the
community to
conserve our
amazing marine
ecosystem through
education programs
that engender
excitement, pride
and knowledge of
Victoria’s marine
environment.”
Utilising nine habitat displays,
touch tanks, an artefact wall
and 3 tonnes of saltwater we
are able to deliver marine
education while inspiring
a passion for our unique
underwater ecosystem.
You and your students
may be interested in visiting
and participating in one
of our unique Marine
Education programs.
AQUATIC MULTIPLICATION
(Aquatic Lifecycles)
Students investigate the wonders of an
underwater universe while exploring the

beneath the waves.
OUR FRAGILE SEAS
(Human Impacts)
Where have all our fish gone?
We now know that our daily lives impact
and unbalance our delicate oceans.
Can we save our seas?
