About usSeaweek is an annual event run by the NZ Association for Environmental Education that allows New Zealanders to come together and, celebrate the sea. It provides a wide range of opportunities for people to learn about our fantastic marine environment and share their experiences of the sea.
Seaweek is about exciting and inspiring all New Zealanders to renew their connection with the sea. It’s not just for children or those involved with formal education – it’s a time for all of us to get to know our ocean, its habits, characteristics and inhabitants.
Seaweek comprises a wide range of events, activities, opportunities and competitions. Information about Seaweek 2011 will be updated and provided on this website closer to the event.
A series of themes has been developed for Seaweek over the next five years, starting with 2010 – Fish for the Future! The theme for Seaweek 2011 is the culture, history and traditions of the sea. Seaweek 2011 will be from 26 February - 6 March. Watch this website for updates on national, regional and local activities around this theme happening before, during and after Seaweek.
