Cobblebank’s Year 8 Fibre students got up close to some fascinating animals during a highly anticipated incursion yesterday.

Staff from Reptile Encounters visited the campus to talk to students about threatened and endangered species. Throughout this term, Year 8s have worked diligently to create joey pouches, which they were excited to donate to marsupials in need.

During the session, students had the unique opportunity to interact with various animals, including a ring-tail possum, a gliding possum, and a Woylie - an animal now extinct in Victoria.
