Last week our L2 Earth & Space Science class visited the International Antarctic Center in Christchurch as part of their studies around extreme environments and how life has adapted to live in such harsh environments.

The students visited the penguin rehabilitation center, hearing about the work the center does in rehabilitating penguins. Other highlights were the 4D movie experience, spending time in the sub-zero storm room, and being driven around an obstacle course in the all-terrain Hagglund vehicle.
