Science

Earth and Environmental Studies

On Friday, 8 March Year 11 Earth and Environmental students conducted experiments and observations of Bundeena to investigate erosion and invasive species. Students worked very well to compare the built area, beaches and national park zones all in one day. It was a beautiful day including exemplary behaviour by students. Well done.

Well done to both Biology classes. Students used their results collected on the  assessment day on 9 March.
