Year 11 ATAR Geography students recently completed a field trip to the Perth Hills Discovery Centre near Mundaring to study the risks and impacts of bushfires. The students braved unseasonably warm weather to complete fieldwork activities such as mapping, field sketching, and measuring slope gradients and fuel loads. The excursion was hosted by the Department of Conservation, Biodiversity, and Attractions and allowed students to develop practical geographical skills to complement their classroom learning.
