Year 3 - Trip to Aust Beach

Today Year 3 enjoyed an exciting and educational trip to Aust Beach as part of their Science topic on Rocks and Fossils. The visit gave the children a fantastic opportunity to explore the local coastline and investigate the fascinating geology of the area first hand.

Throughout the day, the children took part in a variety of activities, including identifying different types of rocks, examining geological features, and searching for evidence of fossils along the shoreline. They were keen observers, using their scientific skills to make discoveries and ask thoughtful questions about how rocks are formed and what fossils can tell us about life millions of years ago.

One of the highlights of the trip was seeing real fossils in their natural environment, helping to bring our classroom learning to life. The children showed great enthusiasm, curiosity, and teamwork throughout the day, and were excited to share their findings with their classmates back at school.

A huge thank you to all the staff and volunteers who helped make the trip possible. Year 3 returned with a wealth of new knowledge and unforgettable memories, making this a valuable and enjoyable learning experience for everyone involved.
