WILD LANDS

Explore Continents

Take students beyond the map with a journey through Earth’s hidden corners. From coral reefs on the edge of the Australian outback to jungle-covered islands with secret lakes, I’ll uncover the lesser-known regions of the world. Along the way, pupils will explore how humans impact these environments and why protecting them matters — making geography and environmental awareness come alive.

WILD NATURE

Connect with Wildlife

Step into the wild with real-life encounters and fascinating animal behaviour. From moonlit turtle nesting beaches to flamingo mating dances in Mexico’s saltwater bays, students will connect with wildlife in extraordinary ways. Through quizzes, stories, and interactive learning, they’ll discover how human life is inspired by the animal kingdom — building curiosity, empathy, and a love for conservation.

WILD LIVES

Discover Cultures

Travel through diverse human communities across the globe — from longhouses in Borneo’s rainforests to Cape Verde’s communal living and stilted villages in the Andaman Sea. Students will compare traditions, explore cultural diversity, and uncover the secrets to community survival in a rapidly modernising world. These talks inspire global citizenship and a deeper understanding of how people thrive in different environments.
