Virtual Reality Incursion – Year 10
As part of Science Week, Year 10 participated in an engaging, interactive Virtual Reality (VR) experience focused on Biology and Earth Sciences. After getting set up, we jumped straight into a programme, exploring a lab on a tropical island while learning about ecosystems and biodiversity. Then, we were free to investigate the original documentaries provided on geological activity in Iceland and glaciers around the world. However, the highlight of the activity was the virtual animal experiences, both underwater and on land. We swam with blue whales through the deep ocean, travelled through coral reefs looking for sea snakes, and fed great whites from a shark cage. Back on dry land, we fed giraffes, walked among dinosaurs and saw beautiful landscapes from around the world. Everyone left happy and buzzing after this amazing experience.
