All curriculum based on the California Public Schools standards. Activities Hosted Onboard: Conservation (Learn the 4 R’s - reduce, reuse, recycle and rot) Renewable Technologies (Build your own solar boat or car) Bay Ecology (Investigate bay organism specimens) Hornblower Cruises is proud to partner with Kids For The Bay, a local non-profit committed to environmental education through action.
