Out in the Deep Blue Sea for Stage 1 Biology
Out in the Deep Blue Sea for Stage 1 Biology
As part of their studies in Stage 1 Biology, students spent the day exploring Port Noarlunga Reef Sanctuary Zone. The aquatics centre staff took students on guided snorkelling and reef walking tours, whilst teaching them about the ecology of this protected reef. It was wonderful seeing the students engaging so enthusiastically with this experience. We even had several students who experienced swimming in the ocean for the time.
“This was my first ever swimming experience and I had a really great time. I saw lots of fish, sea stars and learnt to snorkel.” Makayla Comley 11LK
“I have been to Pt Noarlunga before but this was the first time I have snorkelled on the reef. I really enjoyed learning about the ecology of this unique reef system. We were so lucky to be visited by a curious seal as well.” Molly O’Halloran 11 LK
