Educational programme – CLASSCADES

CLASSCADES is an exciting educational programme for schoolchildren aged 8 to 12 that aims to introduce the science aboard the icebreaker CCGS Amundsen to younger audiences as well as the logistics that makes such an expedition possible. It is designed by Swiss Polar Class, the educational programme developed by the Swiss Polar Institute, and offers free educational content in French and German to anyone curious about polar and high-altitude regions. To access and use the content, please register via this link.

Starting in September, CLASSCADES will include:

  • Educational resources that teachers can use in their classrooms;
  • Online events, including two live conferences from the ship with our science communicator on board;
  • Question-and-answer sessions;
  • And many more activities and games.
