We celebrated the end of our Term 1 science unit by visiting the Lookout Discovery Center at Hyde Park. We really enjoyed this excursion and consolidated our knowledge about the needs of living things, habitats and food chains. 

This we in science we used Venn diagrams to catergorise animals into carnivores, herbivores and omnivores.
