AXA Arctic Live 2021
AXA Arctic Live 2021, part of the AXA Ocean Education programme, returned for its eighth year. While we were unable to travel to the remote north this year, we reached out to Arctic experts from across the globe to bring this amazing frozen world into your classroom.

What a privilege it is to hear Arctic researchers talk about their areas of expertise. I thought the experiments were simple for kids to follow and understand and will definitely be using them in my classroom. I really appreciate having this opportunity and look forward to many more!

I homeschool my two children. We have used the live lessons, as part of our topic work. It has been wonderful, we have participated in the experiments and thoroughly enjoyed it all. Many thanks for providing such inspiring lessons. We look forward to Coral Live in November!

Two fantastic sessions! My class were thrilled to hear a shout out and to hear their question answered. After learning about climate change they were fascinated to hear all of the interesting facts. They loved the images and video clips. The session with the practical experiment was brilliant - we will conduct our own ice experiments next week as it makes learning meaningful. The pace was perfect! We have also been learning about famous explorers so my class were totally enthralled! We really enjoyed it - Thank you Jamie and Nick!
