Porci’s Ocean Patrol is an engaging digital education program designed to help young learners understand the importance of ocean sustainability and environmental responsibility.

Led by Porci the Porcupine Fish, this program empowers students to become Ocean Warriors, exploring real-world challenges and simple everyday actions that help protect our marine ecosystems.

Porci's Ocean Patrol is a series of discoveries. Discover all about our wonderful creatures that live in and around our incredible South Australian oceans, how to keep them healthy, and our Aboriginal culture.

In each episode, Porci and his fellow Ocean Patrollers, Georgie, and Karno, aim to elevate the voices of kids with an interest in South Australian marine life and our Aboriginal cultural origins. Turning education into fun learning by showcasing local marine creatures, and coastal facts, and interacting with viewer games and quizzes.

POP will encourage kids' curiosity with viewer question segments and explain the answers in their language, and inspire positive action to protect the local marine environment, such as joining a local dune replanting group.

Kids can then feel informed and empowered to strengthen their awareness, knowledge, skills, and engagement to promote local marine environmental sustainability among their friends, family, and community.

Whether you’re looking to enrich a sustainability unit, support Science, or create a cross-curricular project around marine life, Porci’s Ocean Patrol is a ready-to-go resource that’s both educational and fun.
