VCE Science Excursions to Gumbuya World 2026

Bringing VCE Science to life through real-world investigation.

Our Gumbuya World excursions are designed specifically for VCE students, connecting classroom theory with authentic, large-scale systems in action.

These curriculum-aligned experiences allow students to gather data, analyse real environments and apply their knowledge in meaningful contexts.

Led by experienced VCE teachers and former VCAA assessors, each excursion is carefully mapped to relevant Units and Areas of Study across Chemistry, Physics, Biology and Psychology.
