Year 2 Visit Melbourne Aquarium and ACMI

‘I was shocked when I learned that the groper fish could even eat a shark!’

On Monday 6 August, Year 2 went on an excursion to Melbourne Sealife Aquarium and ACMI to support their unit of study on Animal Adaptations. The staff and girls all had a wonderful time and enjoyed learning about the animals.

‘I was shocked when I learned that the groper fish could even eat a shark!’ Linda

‘The lionfish was fascinating because it has venomous spikes to protect itself from predators.’ Ruby

‘Pinjara the crocodile was really interesting. He was so huge … he was five metres long!’ Alanah

‘Emperor Penguins are very interesting because they have waterproof feathers to help keep them warm.’  Elizabeth
