On this page are the personal websites of our teachers expedition by expedition.
 
The daily diaries (blogs) of the expeditions can be found on  'The Expeditions' pages expedition by expedition.
 
The Antarctic expedition 2007 was filmed by Teachers TV, and two half hour programmes on the Expedition with four 15 min teacher support programmes were broadcast daily during April 2008, during one week. Links to these are below, and are well worth viewing as they give plenty of information on Antarctica and the work of the Foundation.
