Stage 2 Currumbin Excursion

children

On Thursday, 19 September, Stage 2 went to Currumbin for an excursion.  We went to the Eco Village and the Swell Sculpture by the Sea Exhibition and did a workshop.

At the Eco Village, we had a tour of the place and saw the gym, pool, playground,  library and the hall.  We also saw a lizard pizza oven were they would come together and cook pizza every now and then. We learnt that the Eco village was built on the foundations of a Dairy farm. Later we saw the main part of the village. We got a guide who took us to where his house was and he told us what was sustainable about it. They use recycled wood and every house had their own vegie patch and chicken coop. They had a water tank, solar panels and solar hot water.

At the beach we did a workshop where we got bits of foam and some wire that we could shape and make into whatever we wanted. In another workshop we got to make turtle eggs out of clay.

Also, at the beach, we looked at the Swell Sculpture by the Sea Exhibition. The sculptures were made out of metal, bamboo and other materials.

Overall, it was a good trip and we all enjoyed it very much and learnt a lot from it.
