Exploring Local Nature Places

Introduction

Students will be introduced to the day’s activities, including acknowledging prior experience, a map of the track, learning intentions and safety precautions.

Local Bushland Exploration

The plan for the day depends on a number of factors, including length of walk, type of terrain and distance from the school. This will be negotiated with the school prior to the visit.

The Gibberagong staff are experts in adapting activities to the environment and learning needs of the students. After the prior assessment of the track, the Gibberagong teachers will design a program that will engage students in a variety of hands-on and interesting activities.

NOTE: Variations to timetable based on specific location, group size and weather
