Parent Testimonials
“My daughter loved every minute of CASE Senior Ocean School. She found different areas of interest and met so many likeminded people – she had a fabulous time and wears her ‘wings’ with pride. Francesca made some great friends, learnt so much and was exposed to some amazing learning opportunities.”
“A high-quality trip loaded with many different experiences. Very positive feedback about the staff.”
“Superbly organized and kept the students very busy. Our son barely called us at all, he said he was too busy and having the time of his life. Socially, it was a fantastic to be with a group of positive kids. The day of snorkelling on the barrier reef was an absolute highlight. This was a fabulous experience that teenagers need – combining social and educational in a really fun way.”
“CASE Senior Ocean School provided our daughter with such a life changing experience. Danni now has a deepened interest in science, an invoked passion for marine science and a strong, focused future direction.”
“My daughter loved her trip, and it has definitely improved her confidence and interpersonal skills.”
“Very well organized and it was an experience of a lifetime for our child.”
“My daughter had so much fun whilst being in a nurturing and supportive learning environment. There was so much independence gained.”
“Ed really enjoyed the whole trip. It was great to have his eyes opened to new experiences. Overall, it was an opportunity to do something independent from family but in a safe environment.”
“My daughter felt safe and was in good professional care at all times. The staff were also very friendly and approachable. t’s been a pleasure to deal with Actura. The staff are very understanding. Efforts to keep costs to a minimum and COVID guarantees were appreciated. The program offered a valuable experience to understand what STEAM in a marine environment has to offer. Excellent stretch exercise for young women to respond and engage in new situations outside their normal comfort zones.”
“My daughter had a wonderful time, made new friends, was well cared for and had experiences which will assist in her career choices.”
Student Testimonials
“Throughout CASE Ocean School I have met many new people and made so many new friendships. I have learnt lots about marine biology in general as well as coral and the conditions that it needs to be able to grow, and how to ensure the best conditions to keep reefs healthy and pretty. We learnt how to problem solve successfully and use a growth mindset through the help of the growth mantras and the team challenges.”
“I learnt a lot about myself as a person, I learnt about how I interact with others in different situations and how others interact and what they think of me. I also learnt a lot about the ocean and entrepreneurial activities. It has been a great learning experience.”
“I have opened up my eyes to an incredible amount of wildlife and job opportunities in the field of marine science. It was amazing to see and learn firsthand the effort that is put into maintaining a healthy ocean and combat climate change. I loved snorkelling and being immersed, and indigenous culture was really special. And I was able to learn about myself through the experience.”
“I loved this experience as all the students and staff were supportive, kind and so inspiring. The activities were so much fun, and we learnt so much. I’m really sad I had to leave but the relationships I’ve made will last a lifetime.”
“From CASE Ocean School I have gained many valuable experiences and have also had a lot of personal growth. I got to do many exciting ocean related activities and learnt a lot about the physical environment. I also underwent personal development and I’ve now developed a new way in which I view things.”
“My time and experience at CASE Ocean School thoroughly exceeded my expectations as the relationships, teamwork and experiences were unparalleled to anything I have ever had before. The guidance and support of my Group Manger helped me to overcome my initial fear and apprehension allowing for me to grow and strive in many personal ways. Thank you so much for this wonderful opportunity and the honour of being taught and led by kind, honest and caring people.”
“I was nervous at first, but everyone was really nice which made the experience so great. I learnt so much and it gave me more options to think about when deciding what I want to do when I leave school. I loved all the activities; the food was really good, and I ended up getting on with all the people including the teachers and Group Managers really well. It will be a trip I will never forget!”
“I believe I learnt very valuable leadership skills, which I will take back to school and throughout my university career. I also developed my communication skills. This will help in many areas moving forward.”
“I learnt more about ocean sustainability. I learnt about the growth mindset and managed to become more optimistic. I was able to develop leadership and project management skills. Overall, I enjoyed CASE Ocean School and found it valuable.”
“Primarily, I have learnt to change my mindset. I came to Ocean School hoping to learn more about combating climate change! I did exactly that, but I also got invaluable information on how to change my mindset into one that will help me to achieve anything I set out to do.”
“I had the best time in CASE Ocean School, I came in knowing I wanted to go into marine science, and it really solidified that for me. It also opened more doors and showed me a whole new world of marine science. I met some really amazing people that I will keep long connections with. And I learnt from some really passionate people who were very excited to show us what they do. I’m very grateful for what I learnt and what I will take back home to be able to apply to school and life.”
“I really enjoyed CASE Ocean School and I feel it has met my expectations!! I have made so many new friends and met so many amazing people! I have learnt so much about marine biology, aquaculture and how humans are connected to the coral reefs. I enjoyed the activities such as snorkelling and learning about the indigenous culture.”
