Joint Science and Duke of Ed Trip – An Unforgettable Experience
A group of 18 enthusiastic science students, along with three dedicated staff members, embarked on a six-day kayaking adventure at Ningaloo Reef near Exmouth in Western Australia.
During this amazing journey, the students engaged in various scientific activities, including fish, bird, insect, and coral identification. They also conducted several scientific experiments, all the while meeting the requirements of their Gold Duke of Edinburgh Award adventurous journey.
The trip culminated in a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to swim with whale sharks, where the students were thrilled to encounter a dugong, dolphins, a large stingray, and even an octopus. It was truly a remarkable and enriching experience for everyone involved.
Our Duke of Edinburgh team, in collaboration with the science department, is already working on plans for the 2026 tour. We are excited to build on the success of this trip and provide more students with similar unforgettable experiences in the future.
