We are very happy to announce that our first High School Inspired by Nature Art program was a hit.
What a beautiful day for these HPGE Visual Arts students to connect with the landscape, explore their creativity and develop their artistic practice in the stunning Royal National Park.
A few whales made an appearance, which was definitely the perfect finishing touch.

What a fantastic day at Wattamolla with Jannali Public School Stage 3 students.
It was a pleasure to have them with us for a day of learning, exploring and connecting with the incredible environment of Royal National Park. The students did an amazing job tackling the 5km coastal walk, geographical sketching and geocaching.

It was fantastic to have the Year 11 Biology and Marine Studies students from St Mary Star of the Sea College out at Sandon Point with us.
There’s something special about taking science beyond the classroom and getting hands-on with the environment. The students got stuck into investigating life on the rock platform, making observations, collecting data and seeing firsthand how marine organisms survive in such a challenging environment.
A great day of practical science, curiosity and learning in the field. @

We loved having Peakhurst West Public School join us for a wonderful On Country Excursion at Jibbon Beach
Students immersed themselves in Aboriginal culture and history through ochre painting, Dreaming stories and exploring the Aboriginal rock engravings along the Jibbon Headland walk. They were also lucky enough to see an echidna 🦔

A fantastic day of learning, connection and appreciation for Aboriginal culture and the natural environment. Thank you, Peakhurst West PS, for spending the day with us
