On Tuesday 20th October, some excited Year 4 students visited the Field of Mars Education Centre to study as part of their Sustainability Science and Geography unit. The students investigated how the eucalyptus forest provides habitat for the ringtail possum and other native animals. 

During this excursion Stage 2 students undertook a bush walk, traversing rocky outcrops through wet and dry eucalypt forest. Students investigated and recorded the characteristics of the forest, evidence of animals and their interconnection with the environment,  recording their findings through sketching, mapping, watercolour and constructing  data tables.

We were lucky with the weather and managed time for a picnic lunch and play. The students had a great day.
