Kellyville today to lead us through the Geology Rocks and Hot and Cold programmes. It was very professionally run and Nina was very patient with the many requests of the students. A huge thank you once again, we look forward to running more workshops in the future. Eastlakes Public School Feedback on: Geology Rocks I just wanted to say what a fantastic time our students had at the Geology Rocks incursion at Eastlakes Public School today. They learned so much and couldn't stop talking about all the great activities. Science Show Activities Does itfit? Classify the soil - it a sandy loam or loamy clay? How hardis it?
