YEAR 10 MARINE STUDIES - FISHING AT CROOKHAVEN HEADS
On Thursday 19 June Year 10 Marine Studies students went from classroom to casting and proved they’re hooked on more than just assessment tasks!
“Is it still science if we just talk to the fish?”
“This rod’s got more tension than my last exam…”
Plenty of laughs, tangled lines, and tales of the one that got away.
They came, they saw, they cast — and maybe even caught a fish or two!
