The Gould League was an amazing place - it even had its very own shrinking machine allowing the Preps to explore the inside of a compost bin. So many hands on activities - the Preps were totally engaged all day.
A big thank you to Mrs. Reszka, Mrs. David, Sonya, Suzi and Emma for helping to make this day fantastic and for taking such great photos to share.
Also thank you to Kirsten from the Gould League who ran the day and was amazing!

Our mission is to share all that we have learnt with our school and wider community. We are all responsible for looking after our environment.
What can you do to reduce the amount of rubbish going into landfill?
Dear Prep K. They are great photos and we had a fantastic time on the excursion. We were shrunk in the shrinking machine and we learned how we should care for our environment.

Wow Preps.. It looks like you had so much fun on your excursion! I'm sure you will all be experts at what can be recycled and how we can reduce our rubbish that goes to landfill.
