National Arboretum Excursion: Year 1

National Arboretum

This Year 1 excursion will be focused on the cork forest at the National Arboretum, linking to our current mathematics unit on patterns. We will investigate how the design of plantings at the arboretum support the growth and longevity of the trees.  Students will also link with our Unit of Inquiry, How We Express Ourselves, offering students the opportunity to immerse themselves in a  natural environment with endless possibilities for creative expression. It is a divine place to explore with a magical feel and we are sure it will be a valuable experience. 

Year 1 students from both Campbell Campus and Red Hill Campus will be participating in this excursion.

Students to wear: PE uniform and sunhat. Please ensure sunscreen is applied before your child comes to school on the day.

Students to bring: back pack, water bottle,  fruit snack and food for the day. Lunch orders will not be available.

Staff coordinating: Louise Nancarrow
