The Year 7 students were lucky enough to attend an excursion to Monarto Safari Park! The purpose of this day was to enrich their in-class learnings about classification of animals, and place and liveability in STEM, as well as learn real life examples of economics and business for HUMS.
The students experienced a bus tour of the many animal habitats which was led by a wonderful guide who explained the conservation goals of Zoos SA, shared interesting facts with us, as well as asked and answered many questions.
Students also had time to explore the other exhibits on a self-guided walking tour, this included sightings of the chimpanzees and emus.
A highlight of the excursion was seeing the white rhino calf that was only two weeks old and was out for public display for the first time that day!
