🐞🪲🐝 Our Year 5/6 students have been busy 🐞🪲🐝 Our Year 5/6 students have been busy researching and designing Bug Hotels in Permaculture with Miss Dullard!

These creative projects give beneficial insects like solitary bees and ladybugs a safe place to live while helping support biodiversity in our environment. 🌿🌎

Through their work, students explored the needs of different insects and discovered how materials can be used to create welcoming habitats. What an amazing way to combine science, creativity, and care for creation! 💡✨

🌊 This term, our DRI ‘i sea i care’ Ambassa 🌊 This term, our DRI ‘i sea i care’ Ambassadors visited the junior classrooms to share their passion for protecting the ocean! 💙🐬

Through hands-on presentations, they explored incredible marine life and showed simple ways we can care for it—like reducing single-use plastics and recycling. 🌱♻️ Living just across from Western Port Bay, our students learned that they really can make a difference every day! ✨

And even Bexley, our Wellbeing Dog, got in on the action as their very first audience! 🐾💛
