Ocean Park issues 1 accompanying teacher ticket for every 10 student tickets purchased per group, so they can accompany students to the programme. An extra fee applies for any additional teacher to enter the Park, and the fee does not include the participation of the programme. Students cannot use the teacher admission tickets, and vice versa. All participants are expected to leave Ocean Park after the education programme. Participants who would like to remain at the Park and enjoy its facilities after the programme must apply in advance and pay a stay-behind surcharge.
Students participating in primary programmes can get a copy of the Orienteering Mission Worksheet for HK$20! Students who pay the stay-behind surcharge can get it for FREE.
The programme fees are valid until 31 August 2026.
