Why Public School Habitat Day



On Monday 23rd of May, Yrs 5 & 6 went to Manly


for Habitat Day for Project Penguin. When we arrived we went to Collins Flat Beach


and did a beach map, a survey of the beach and bush regeneration. After that we


had recess and lunch at Little Manly. We went to Manly Wharf to listen to the


staff from the Manly Environment Centre, Judy, and the Manly Penguin Warden,


Sue, to talk about the threats to the Little Penguins and their critical habitat


area. After we had listened to them we went back to school. 



What an excellent day!

On Monday 23rd May the Yrs 5/6 went to Manly for


habitat day for Project Penguin. When we arrived at Little Manly we walked down


to Collins Flat Beach and did some activities. Then we had morning tea and


lunch at little Manly. We went to the Manly Wharf and we heard from a Manly


Penguin Warden called Sue and the Manly Environment Centre staff member called


Judy, who talked about the Little Penguins that live in the Manly Wharf and


other areas around the Manly beach; and also what types of animals that damage


and hurt the little penguins.



What great fun!
