Year 4's Snooze at the Zoo

In what is likely to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, our Year 4 classes took turns sleeping at Adelaide Zoo last week. Not only did they get to sleep within earshot of the animals, they were taken on an exclusive night walk through the zoo and special ranger talks. The excursion, which formed part of their Science studies, was not only a great learning opportunity and a whole lot of fun, it was their first experience of school camps – helping to build their resilience and independence. They returned tired, but full of joy and already anticipating their Year 5 camp next year.

A big thanks to all our staff and volunteers who helped make the experience happen, and to our families who helped prepare the students for their first school camp!
