SENATOR JEFF KLEIN TAKES LOCAL CHILDREN TO THE NY AQUARIUM

Senator Jeff Klein provided the children of Throggs Neck Houses with a memorable experience to The New York Aquarium.

Bronx, NY –State Senator Jeff Klein (D-Bronx/Westchester) sponsored a trip to The New York Aquarium on Saturday for the children of Throggs Neck Houses. The educational tour included a special classroom lesson on marine mammals, a sea lion aquatheater show, and a look at the coral reef, freshwater fish, sea otters, penguins, sharks, and rays.

“I’m happy to work with the Throggs Neck Houses to keep our children learning outside of classroom hours. Maybe this field trip inspired one of our youngsters to become a marine biologist and hopefully inspired the group to be more passionate about science in the classroom,” said Senator Klein.  “I am proud to sponsor activities like this that engage and excite our students.”

Participants enjoyed additional marine science-themed activities and snacks upon their return to The Throggs Neck Houses.
