On Monday the 28th of June, the Year 3 and Year 4 students will be going on an excursion to the WA Shipwreck Museum in Fremantle.
The shipwreck museum is filled with discovery while providing historical and geographical knowledge and understanding. In Year Three, students have been learning all about Australia, our history, famous landmarks and influential people. In Year Four, students have been learning about explorers and stories of the first fleet to Australia. Throughout the excursion, students will build on these understandings and complete a number of activities that help develop critical Humanities and Social Science skills as they ask questions and collect information from a variety of sources.
Students will be travelling to and from the excursion by bus. The bus will depart school at 9am and return at approximately 1:00pm. Please see the excursion timetable below.
