What the students liked…

I liked to see and pat the ringtail possum and snake.  I thought it was a good way to learn.

I learnt a lot from the aquaponics session.

I enjoyed doing Aboriginal Culture because I learnt lots.  I also liked the sustainability web it was fun and interesting.

I enjoyed the puppet show about how the river got polluted and the macro invertebrates leaving.  I learnt a lot about the environment and how it doesn’t take many people to pollute it.

I learnt that we have to save water.

It was very good fun and lots of things to learn about.

I liked the task when we got in groups and made the trees out of paper to represent carbon molecules.

I learned a lot without using school books.

I liked holding the snake and the turtle and the puppets.

I enjoyed learning about weeds and the native trees and the quiz about them.
