Children living in poverty need encouragement and support. By writing a letter to a child in a Children International community, you can let them know someone cares and is wishing them well. This can be incredibly motivating as they work for a brighter, more hopeful future.

Send the digital letter here: children.org/write-a-child

The Floating Classroom is an innovative tool of the AMIkids Marine Education program designed to inspire our youth to get involved in the outdoors and become better stewards of the environment around them.

The Floating Classroom is a half-day boat excursion on board "Orlando's Rose," a vessel designed to conduct marine education and research activities and donated by Bill and Carol Barrows.

Mote Marine Laboratory and Aquarium educators power the educational component by providing lectures and environmental interpretation onboard. Different topics include biodiversity, the watershed, local ecosystems, marine food chains, the ecological services provided by mangroves and estuaries, conservation, biofact learning, water quality, and basic seamanship concepts.

The floating classroom curriculum is heavily experiential and relies on field activities such as identifying different organisms and collecting specimen samples in the waterways around the greater Tampa area. Other activities of the floating classroom include field sampling, plankton collection and identification, scientific tool use, wildlife observation, marine debris collection, citizen science projects, and group discussions.

The Floating Classroom is also an opportunity for AMIkids to share its calling to empower young people facing uncertain futures to become
confident, successful adults by cultivating business and community partnerships through team building, stewardship, and volunteerism.

Volunteers will need to bring / wear:
Water activities-friendly clothing (be prepared to wade in the water to about waist level)
Sun protection (Hats, Sunscreen, and sunglasses)
Consider bringing a change of clothes and a towel
Signed AMIkids release of liability

The volunteer role at the event:

The job of a Floating Classroom volunteer is to help with logistics and help motivate participants through positive and uplifting interactions.

We expect volunteers to arrive before the participants. The lead will direct you to preparation tasks such as preparing life jackets and water shoes, drinks, and helping set up the lunch area.

Once the participants are on-site, they will receive a briefing. At this point, your role as a volunteer involves handing out water shoes, ensuring everyone is signed in, ensuring youth wear sunscreen, have water shoes, wear shorts, store their non-essential items in lockers, write their names on water bottles, etc. Your lead will direct you to the tasks that will have the most impact.

While onboard Orlando's Rose, your role is to engage with the participants in positive mentoring ways, to keep a constant safety watch, and to help direct youth towards the educators when a lecture is ongoing.

At some point, we will get off the boat for field sampling. During this activity, your role is to partner and spend time with youth while dip-netting and ensure everyone is in approved areas (not on the mangroves, stay within sight of lifeguards)

When the boat docks and everyone is getting off, we will need you to ensure the water shoes go in the rinse bucket, help rinse and store water shoes, clean up the water activities locker, and pack the floating classroom supplies for storage.

We will provide lunch for everyone. Please let us know if there are any allergies or restrictions, and ensure you plan to share time and eat with the participants.

Our Outdoor Learning Centre always has a need for work towards its upkeep and improvement. This can range from weeding, planting, cutting, redeveloping areas, clearing stream channels and building things such as planting beds. We're looking for groups of volunteers who are keen to volunteer with us and do some fundraising. We do operate other sites and can be flexible as to where you go depending on convenience and need.

There are always plenty of jobs to do and on the day we'll put forward ideas and let people organise themselves into groups based on what they want to do and then show them how to use any tools involved. Then you can crack on with helping in your team with someone at hand if you need any help.

Our ideal volunteer just needs to be enthusiastic and happy to spend the day outdoors with their colleagues. Anyone with a keen interest in gardening, DIY or woodworking will be able to put their skills to good use.

By volunteering here you are able to help limit the amount of funds that need to be spent on the upkeep and development of this site, allowing for more of our funds to go towards delivery of our Outdoor Learning work. Time outdoors has proven benefits for the negative symptoms of Autism and ADHD as well as increasing engagement with learning and recontextualising learning, hence our focus on getting more young people engaged with nature. Overall you will support our work utilising this site to help young people across Hampshire engage in learning and achieve better futures.

Volunteers should bring comfortable shoes, a water bottle, sun cream and lunch. We provide gardening gloves and any tools that might be needed but if anyone wants to bring their own then they're welcome to do so.

The Outdoor Learning Centre is roughly a 15 minute walk from Eastleigh train station. There is parking available directly opposite this site at 'The Hub', which is free for two hours and after that is paid for.

We have toilets on site and a volunteer hut with water and tea/coffee making facilities.
