National Science Week at Coromandel Valley Primary School looked like:

Extra lunchtime activities – Minecraft Club: create a habitat, nature painting with water colours, building minibeasts, hosted an incursion from Save Our Wildlife Foundation (SOWFI) planting local natives and an escape room in the library.

We partnered with the Biological Society of South Australia and the Friends of Frank Smith Park to provide an after-school community event, identifying native bird species in our area. Students used binoculars, Green Adelaide identification sheets and made predictions about what birds might be living in this area.  The bird specialists from BSSA informed students how they could care for these species and what changes they could make at home and school, to ensure their survival.  

Thank you to Jodie, Megan and Robin for cooking the after school bbq snack, it went down a treat!
