The K-2 Dubbo Zoo excursion has been postponed until Term 3.

With the weather forecast of 90% likelihood of rain for Dubbo tomorrow and 50% in Parkes the K-2 teachers agree that this is not conducive to an enjoyable walk and picnic day to see and discuss the amazing animals for the students. 

An alternative date in Term 3 closer to Spring will be planned and information will be emailed.
