The 5th Year Biology class and Ms O'Sullivan visited Dublin Zoo to carry out an ecology study.
On Wednesday 11th of April 5th year students carried out an Ecological study in Dublin Zoo as part of their Leaving Cert biology course. It was a very cold day but the students persevered and with the help of the very knowledgeable education officer carried out a successful and interesting study.
