20.01.2022 Recently, Year 9 students have been pushing their horticultural know-how to the limit. As part of their Energy Through the Ecosystem Module in Science, students are creating a terrarium of a chosen biome - such as aquatic, rainforest, or tundra. Our resourceful students have independently researched, collected, and compiled materials to create their microcosmic snapshots of the world. The terrarium will be paired with an information stall that advocates for a specific strategy that combats issues facing their biome in the world. The content of the course has been integrated into the creation of the information stall, where they will need to inform, raise awareness, and advocate for their biome. !
