As part of their studies in the Year 9 and 10 Geography Coasts and Connections Unit, students have been learning about coastal landforms and investigating and evaluating coastal management strategies in use at our beaches.  

On Wednesday 1st of November, 23 students travelled by mini bus to the Mornington Peninsula to visit a variety of coastal environments and view these features first hand.  Although the weather was cool and windy, the rain stayed away allowing students to visit and complete observations at three locations - Point Nepean National Park - London Bridge Road, Sorrento village and beach and Rye Bay Beach.   Students collected data, completed sketches and took photos that will be used in class to complete an individual fieldwork report.   

Students are to be commended for their excellent behaviour and focus throughout the day.  

A big thank you to Mr Tawa for driving the minibus on the day.
