Living Rainforest Trip – Years 3 & 4

This week Years 3 & 4 went on a fascinating tour learning all about amazing Adaptations’ at the living Rainforest. They were told how plants and animals have adapted to living in a rainforest environment and the different habitats and microhabitats found within them. They learned about epiphytes, a type of plant that lives on other plants and trees without damaging or harming them. Did you know they never touch the ground? They get their nutrients from the air and water, not from soil. They saw many tropical birds and reptiles, such as an Emerald Tree Boa!
