Saint John High – Grade 11 IB Biology

For the past three days we’ve had classes from Saint John High visiting for the day.  While on campus the students went on the boat, worked in the plankton lab, did a classification lab with marine benthic invertebrates, and conducted a behaviour experiment with barnacles.  Below are some pictures from their adventures.
