Our excursion to the Melbourne Zoo

The Year 1 and 2 classes visited the Melbourne Zoo a few weeks ago. The focus was discovering different animals and which countries these animals come from. Below are a few activities we completed after the trip.

Wanted posters for an escaped zoo animal.

 

 

Where in the world are these animals from?

Starbright Tours, Walk around Kew - A step back in time

As part of our Inquiry unit, Now and then, 1KB went on a historical walk around Kew. We were looking for old buildings, memorials and landmarks that were important to Kew in the past and are also important today. The walk was nearly 2km's long and a well earned snack was eaten at Alexandra Gardens before we returned to KPS.

 

 

                       

              

St John's First Aid

During the first week of Term 2, St John's Ambulance came out to teach each class about First Aid. We learnt how we can help out in an emergency if someone is hurt. Through role playing and actions our instructor taught us to assess danger, see if the person is breathing and can hear us and how to put someone into the recovery position. We also practiced calling 000 for help and answering questions that  may be asked over the phone.
