On 22-24th May, Hanova’s Year 5 students traveled south of the city to the Foping National Wildlife Reserve. During the 3 day trip, the students thoroughly enjoyed experiencing Education Outside the Classroom (EOTC) in an outdoor environment.

Each day was filled with a variety of indoor and outdoor activities to encourage the students to explore new avenues of learning – including rock painting, a museum scavenger hunt, hiking on mountain trails and climbing to a scenic city overlook, outdoor basketball and badminton, snail and fish hunting in the mud, a delicious BBQ dinner and much more!

We are proud of our students for taking risks and working together during the trip!
