Frozen Kingdoms Interactive Schools Project November 2018





LiketoBe’s, Frozen Kingdoms interactive project is now open for students, teachers and schools to register to take part in the coming academic year. The project will follow Polar Explorer and Entrepreneur, Antony Jinman, and Wildlife Film Maker and Conservationist, Ruth Peacey, on their polar journey, giving young people in Key Stages 1 to 4 the opportunity to learn all there is to know about the cooler regions of our planet. In collaboration with a host of polar experts from across the globe, Antony and Ruth will take you on a truly immersive journey from the comfort of your classroom.

About Frozen Kingdoms Interactive Schools Project


From November 2018 to January 2019 Antony and Ruth be travelling the Peninsula of Antarctica, South Georgia and the Falkland Island with the aim of bringing this experience directly into the school classroom. On their journey they will be supported by a team of polar experts who together will be providing regular blogs, photos and videos giving an eye witness account and expert knowledge of the wildlife, environment and history of the areas they traverse, to young people all over the world.

The Frozen Kingdoms project is open to students studying in Key Stages 1 to 4 and is made up of tailored lesson plans, presentations and videos enabling our frozen regions to be brought straight into the classroom setting. Topics that will be covered include wildlife conservation, impacts of climate change, the geography and history of the environment and native populations just to name a few!

The project is being hosted within the educational careers networking site LiketoBe.org, thus enabling students to access discussion forums, debate topics, share ideas and ask questions to the team throughout their journey. Students will also be invited to take part in competitions giving them a real opportunity to not only learn more about the Polar Regions, but to also develop valuable skills towards learning and work.

Students, teachers and schools can access the Frozen Kingdoms interactive project for free by signing up to LiketoBe.org. If you have any queries please do not hesitate to contact us.

In search of penguins

Image from Antarctica Bound on Flickr Polar adventurer Antony Jinman may have been on several epic trips to both the North and South Poles but he has yet to see a penguin - and that's a fact he's determined to change when he journeys to the South Pole again later this year. Plymouth-born Antony is the 12th Briton to ski to both the Geographic North Pole and solo to the South Pole and his boyhood dream was to follow in the footsteps of his hero Captain Robert Falcon Scott , to journey to the white continent and hopefully see a penguin in real life. Yet despite making it to the South Pole 102 years after Captain Scott, after skiing solo for 46 days to the pole he didn't see a single penguin on the snow or ice! Antony is now about to embark on MS Hebridean Sky (one of the finest small ships in the world) as a guest lecturer, and will be venturing down to the continent once again this December and January. On this occasion, he will be exploring the coastline of Antar...

My challenge now is to find out what teachers and schools would like the platform to do for them.

We're developing a unique platform and content to connect teachers and students with professionals to provide impartial, authentic careers advice. Much as British Astronaut Tim Peake did using technology, the founder of LiketoBe, polar explorer Antony Jinman has engaged live and direct with classrooms while on various expeditions.
