Today our Year 5 and 6 students travelled to Albury to explore the Wonga Wetlands.

The students explored the wetlands to develop a greater understanding of the micro-organisms that exist in our local waterways. They engaged in a range of activities to collect micro-organisims, both in the water and on the land. They then used tools including microscopes and computers to discover what they had collected and find out more information about them.

They also had great fun constructing shelters from sticks. This required lots of team work and strategising to make the shelters strong. We finished the day off with a yummy sausage sizzle and a play at the park before heading back to school.
