Year 11 Geography Fieldwork

On Tuesday, Year 11 Geography students had the wonderful opportunity to visit the Bicentennial Park Wetlands for an exciting and educational excursion. The purpose of this trip was to help the students understand the biophysical interactions of the wetlands, as well as to learn about the important role that wetlands play in our ecosystem.

During the excursion, the students were taken on a guided tour of the wetlands by an experienced park ranger. They were able to observe and learn about the various plant and animal species that live in the wetlands, including the important role they play in maintaining the ecosystem. The students were also able to observe the different water and land features that make up the wetlands, and how they interact with each other.

The students were actively engaged in the learning process throughout the excursion, asking questions and sharing their observations with each other. They were able to apply the knowledge they have learned in their Geography and Science classes to better understand the biophysical interactions of the wetlands.

Overall, the Year 11 excursion to the Bicentennial Park Wetlands was a great success. The students had an enjoyable and educational experience, gaining a better understanding of the importance of wetlands in our ecosystem. 

Thank you to the Sydney Olympic Park staff who helped make this excursion possible, and to the students for engaging positively on such a hot day!

We look forward to more exciting learning opportunities in the future.
