Aim
To provide students with opportunities to work scientifically and to investigate the living and non-living world in a natural place.
Students are immersed in the world of secret agents, being invited to the Bunyaville forest by the Director of the Earth Intelligence Agency (EIA), Special Agent X, via a video transmission to search for Agent Claw who has gone missing. Students are also asked to complete Agent Claw’s mission to identify living, non-living and once-living things in the Bunyaville Conservation Park and to investigate the increased human activity in this natural environment. During their Bunyaville experience, students participate in two activities Tracks, Scats and Traces (TST) and Leaf Litter Search (LLS) which are taught by the classroom teacher and an Earthwalk led by a Bunyaville EEC teacher.
