About this event
Help Captain Compass solve a floating mystery inspired by Someone Swallowed Stanley, to discover how small actions can make a big difference to our oceans. Combining theatre, storytelling and STEM, this engaging adventure explores caring for our marine environment while celebrating the Royal Navy's enduring connection to the sea. Something very unusual has been spotted floating near HMS Warrior, and Captain Compass needs your help. Is it treasure? Is it rubbish? Or could it be something much more surprising?

This lively storytelling adventure encourages children to think about pollution, recycling and ways to protect the incredible wildlife that depends upon healthy seas. Through games, audience participation and imaginative challenges, families will learn why caring for our oceans matters and how everyone can play a part. For centuries, the Royal Navy has relied on clean, healthy seas for exploration, defence and discovery. This session helps children understand how protecting the marine environment today helps preserve o
