Nocturnal incursion
Science and Technology - updated for 2024 syllabus
What animals live or visit your school at night?
Immersed into a nightscape, students will engage with stories, sounds and a guided discovery of their school grounds to learn about nocturnal animals, their features, behaviours and habitat needs.
Students will meet stick insects, bush cockroaches and centipedes – food for some of our nocturnal animals. They will create a mini nocturnal garden using natural materials to re-enact a night-time adventure and conclude by performing a nightscape chorus.
Grass tube stock will be presented to the class at the conclusion of the session.
Program length approximately 1.5 hours.
1 class per session.
Maximum 3 program sessions per day.
