Geography Fieldwork Day

The Year 11 General Geography class went on a fieldwork excursion in week 5. We explored the grounds and public artworks of Optus Stadium, learning about the six Noongar seasons and the cultural significance of the river region. Next we crossed the Matagarup bridge, enjoying the sunshine, artistic soundscapes, and spotting black swans. Students learnt about the history of Victoria Gardens and East Perth while collecting data about native flora and fauna. Students then walked through Claisebrook Cove to collect data about land use and transport in the area. Finally we enjoyed a great view of the Swan river while sketching Optus Stadium.

“We learnt about Indigenous art and sculptures on the grounds of Optus stadium. I enjoyed learning about the nature-driven design for the Optus grounds.” – Jordan

“We treasure hunted for artworks, including bronze turtles.” – Lailaa

"I enjoyed collecting data about native flora and fauna, including the black swans who are currently caring for 10 cygnets. We learnt about the erosion problems facing this part of the Swan river, and the ways the government is restoring it.” – Nina

“I liked people watching and tallying up who was using the park, inlcuding cyclist, joggers and families.” – Arslan
