Marine Studies<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Marine Studies students have been diving deep (both literally and figuratively) into the wonders of the ocean this term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Year 10 has been exploring The Abyss<\/em>, discovering the fascinating creatures that inhabit this extreme environment, before shifting focus to Coastal Management<\/em>. They\u2019ve been investigating the challenges facing Cronulla Beach and exploring sustainable strategies to protect this vital coastline. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meanwhile, our Year 9 students have been getting hands-on with their studies of local estuaries, learning practical fishing skills and developing a stronger connection to the marine ecosystems right on their doorstep. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Both classes are now eagerly looking forward to their upcoming camps at Chowder Bay and Jervis Bay, where they\u2019ll continue to apply their learning in the field and deepen their appreciation for Australia\u2019s unique marine environments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
