We are excited to share that our Year 2 students will be heading out on an excursion to Rio Tinto Naturescape Kings Park on Thursday, 7th May.
This experience will support our History unit on People and Places, with meaningful links to Sustainability and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Cultures. Students will explore the theme Noongar Boodjar Six Seasons, focusing on Djeran—the cool, transitional time of year. Through hands-on learning, the children will deepen their understanding of family, country and connection to place.

If you are able to assist, please email your class teacher maria.churack@cewa.edu.au or deborah.rodriguez@cewa.edu.au directly. Please note that if you are volunteering to assist you will be required for the whole time we are at Kings Park.
Parents are warmly welcome to attend; however, please note that families will need to arrange their own transport to and from the venue.
