Year Six - Canberra 2024

As previous Canberra trippers will attest, the week Year Six recently spent in Canberra was exciting, educational, inspirational and exhausting! Our days were busy and long as we tried to see and do as much as possible in our five days in the nation’s capital.

Our first stop on the trip was Dubbo where we visited the zoo for a ‘behind the scenes’ early morning walk.  It was then on to Parkes for lunch. After lunch, we continued on our way to Canberra, arriving Sunday evening. The next five days saw us visit Parliament House, Questacon, the Royal Australian Mint, Australian War Memorial, National Museum, National Gallery of Australia, Australian Institute of Sport, Museum of Australian Democracy, Mugga Mugga Cottage, the Botanical Gardens, Electoral Education Centre, National Dinosaur Museum, Mt Ainslie and Cockington Green. In our spare time, we squeezed in a bit of mini golf and popped down to Perisher for a day of fun in the snow!

A big thank you to Mrs Irwin, Mrs Densley, Miss Morgan, Mrs Sayer, Mr Anderson, Mrs Row and Miss Chinnery for accompanying us on the trip. We hope they have as many wonderful memories of the week as we do!
