Prep Students Go Wild: Up-Close with Wildlife at Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary
On Friday (the 9th of August) our Prep students visited Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary, where they had the incredible opportunity to experience God’s creation up close, interacting with kangaroos, koalas, and dingos in a setting that brought their classroom lessons to life.
Teaching from a Christian worldview, we emphasise that all animals are part of God’s design, and this trip allowed students to marvel at His handiwork first-hand. Our students returned with a deeper appreciation for the beauty and diversity of God’s creation, cherishing the unforgettable experiences that made their learning both meaningful and memorable.
