Crestwood Academy - Day 4

Saturday was the final day for Crestwood Academy.  In the morning the students and teachers went to Pottery Creek to search for marine worms.  At Pottery Creek the students found some large Clam worm specimens as well as many hungry gulls.
Later in the morning, and in to the afternoon, students presented their findings from the zonation data collection completed on Friday as well as their results from the invertebrate behaviour experiments.

 

The tide was already on its way in when students arrived at Pottery Creek Saturday morning.
