Education | Visitors to Jocara
Visitors to Jocara
There are 8 Singapore schools involved with JIOQ, integrating material from our trip into their curriculum and doing Indian Ocean-based projects. One class from each of the 8 schools was invited to visit Jocara before we set off to learn more about the boat, meet the crew and get a sense of connection with the expedition and its members.
During our voyage we continue to have students visiting Jocara in various countries. We start with a tour on deck, showing the equipment and explaining about sailing. The tour then continues in the cockpit where all the navigational instruments are. Below-decks visitors get to see how we live on board and we usually show some of our educational movies.

Zanzibar, Tanzania 14
February 2005 We had groups from two local schools, one from each of the coastal villages in Kizimkazi where we were anchored. Even though these kids live right by the sea, some of them had never been on a boat and could not swim. Casper and Alex went to visit one school in Dimbani in return. |
