Students observed the significant changes in urban and water features, reflecting on how these developments have enhanced the livability of Eastwood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We also had the opportunity to engage in scientific testing and collect geographic data from Terry Creek using the turbidity test to measure the cloudiness of the water. This helped us understand the quality of the water and its impact on the local ecosystem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In addition, we created a detailed field sketch of the detention basin, carefully noting its features such as the shape of the basin, the surrounding vegetation and any signs of wildlife. This hands on activity allowed us to analyse how these elements interact with each other and contribute to the overall health of the environment. By combining scientific testing with artistic observation, we gained a deeper appreciation for the natural landscape and its changes over time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Through the development of infrastructure and other changes in Eastwood we feel that the livability of the area has improved. The livability has exponentially grown from when Eastwood had a low population with low vegetation and greenery. We believe that the changes have been positive because through the years Eastwood has developed into a place with a diverse culture, lots of recreational spaces and activities as well as good links to facilities and transport.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n In summary, the positive changes in Eastwood is marked by improved infrastructure, cultural diversity and an abundant of recreational opportunities which have collectively contributed to a significant rise in livability, transforming it into a thriving community that meets the needs and aspirations of its residents. By Roy Kim and Michael Lim Year 8 embarked on an exciting Geography excursion to explore different parts of Eastwood, focusing on the themes of \u2018Water, Place and Liveability\u2019. The students walked through key areas, including Eastwood Oval and Terry\u2019s Creek, examining how the suburb has transformed over the decades.
