As tradition continues, the best quiz participants will be invited to visit the Arbavere Research Centre in spring 2026, where exciting field workshops and hands-on geology sessions await.

The Director of the Geological Survey of Estonia, Sirli Sipp Kull, says:
“Last year we met so many wonderful teachers and students during Earth Science Week – and it reminded us that geology can spark joy and curiosity in learners of all ages. Join us again this year to think, ask, and explore together – because that’s how curiosity begins and care for our Earth grows.”
