Estuaries are Habitats

 Today Year Six explored how our local estuary offers lots of habitats for plants and animals.  We reviewed our prior knowledge with a fun Kahoot, before reading about different estuary habitats in depth.  Afterwards we created our own online mangrove habitat using this website:


Ethan "birds live in the estuaries"

Tiaan "Mangrove forests are highly productive busy zones"

Holiday homework - visit the Wakaaranga Creek or Rotary Walkway.
