On Thursday 30 May, the Kindergarten students attended their very first excursion to Wildlife Sydney Zoo. The visit provided a first hand opportunity to observe a variety of Australian native animals in environments that replicated their natural habitat. The excursion was planned as a provocation for future writing experiences in which the students will be creating descriptive texts about a chosen animal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We were blessed with beautiful weather on the day and the students enjoyed their bus trip to Darling Harbour. Travelling over the Anzac Bridge and seeing the Sydney Harbour Bridge in the distance, were particular highlights of the journey!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While at the Zoo, the students were excited to see many fascinating Australian animals, including a Bare-Nosed Wombat, a Goodfellow Tree Kangaroo, and a Southern Cassowary. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The students listened intently to an animal keeper talk on Western Grey Kangaroos, as they ventured excitedly through the Kangaroo Walkabout. The day culminated in an enjoyable lunch break on the \u2018Koala Rooftop\u2019 where the students observed no less than eight Koalas including the newest addition, Baby Parker!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Kindergarten teachers would like to take this opportunity to thank the amazing group of parents who gave generously of their time to accompany us and provide additional supervision on the day. We would also like to thank and congratulate the students themselves for demonstrating respectful behaviour during their excursion. They were wonderful ambassadors for our College and did themselves, their teachers and their parents, proud!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
