The stork has delivered!

The stork has delivered!

We are the proud custodians of 100 new Jade Perch Fingerlings.

These Fingerlings will be fed and cared for by next year's Marine Studies classes. They take about 12 to 18 months to grow to table size meaning they will be ready to process for NAIDOC Week 2023. They are currently madly exploring their new surrounds and getting to know our students. Big shadows are scary!

Our current mature Jade Perch are doing well despite the floods and being lonely at school during COVID lockdowns. They have grown to a lovely size and will be deliciously prepared by our Hospitality students halfway through next year.

Marine Studies regrettably couldn't have fish ready for this year because Fingerlings must be delivered by air. We were unable to safely purchase fish with all the planes grounded last year. It is nice to see our Marine Studies curriculum begin to return to normal.
