This week on Tuesday and Wednesday, the grade 5 & 6 students headed into the city for a 2 part excursion.

Part 1 of the Excursion was down Lygon St, where the students put their knowledge of the Italian Language to the test. Students were immersed in Italian culture as they walked along Lygon St, checking out all the cafes, restaurants and shops that very much reflect Italy today.

I would have to day that for many of us on the day the highlight was ordering our very own gelati using our knowledge of the Italian language. The staff at the gelati shop were extremely impressed with the students language skills! So well done everyone!

Part 2 of the excursion was the the IMAX cinema, where we watch the move ‘The Human Body’. It really showed us an up close and personal look at all of the body systems. ‘Im sure there were quite a few queasy stomachs at some points!

All students took part in the excursion with great enthusiasm and respect on the day, so well done to all! Check out the Animoto clip above for some great pics from the day :)
