Trips, Camps, Excursions and Incursions Year 5s at Melbourne Zoo Year 5 students were fortunate enough to squeeze in their anticipated excursion to Melbourne Zoological Gardens before our fourth lockdown took effect. With directed activities related to the Term 2 topic of ‘Sharing the Planet’, the boys explored the idea that ‘the smallest changes have a big impact on a system’. A highlight of the day was an educational session where the boys learnt to examine the bones of different animals to determine the species of animal by looking at the teeth, the structure of bones, position of the eyes, and length of snout.
