After last year's amazing family road trip, Alice, Billy and Corey were looking forward to the upcoming summer holidays. However, they still had a few more days of school to attend. They were excited because today's lessons would be conducted on a field trip.

Lesson 1
It started at Hunt reserve where they warmed up with some physical exercise on the play equipment. Next was a history lesson, researching the origin of the park's name by reading the information on the nearby plaque. The teacher then challenged the class to figure out their next destination by providing this clue:
1/1, 5/32, 16/24, 6/28, 3/21, 19/9, 4/20, 16/21, 20/16, 8/25, 9/29, 2/12, 15/15, 5/21, 11/23, 17/6, 19/5, 8/26, 20/4, 19/17, 5/21, 15/18
Lesson 2
Having enjoyed morning tea at their new location, the teacher had a geometry lesson planned. Using the hotline number on the nearby sign as ABCD EFGH, project a distance of GH.DCm at a bearing of (H-E)B(A-B)°.
Lesson 3
With all the physical and mental activities, the kids were ready for lunch. Of course it was straight back into learning mode with the teacher incorporating this week's spelling words into their activities combined with a touch of basic arithmetic:
overflow + reduce
surrounding
microbial
=============
river + properties
volume - coarse
collection - removal
Lesson 4
They ended the day with science, collecting all sorts of botanical specimens and storing them in test tubes for later analysis in the school's lab. While packing up, the test tube must have fallen out of Billy's pocket. Can you please help Billy find his test tube to avoid a detention.
Once you've signed the log, your school day is over. Feel free to share your favourite school subject or the shenanigans that led to a detention.
This geocache was part of GC Project: It's Raining Caches 2025.
The project's aim was to create a rain of new geocaches to fall from the sky across the state of NSW at 9am on 19th January 2025 - 1 week before Sydney Geoquest, the first Block Party in the Southern Hemisphere.
Many legendary hiders came together to generously contribute their finest geocaches to build excitement and connection amongst the community and for all finders to enjoy years after the event.
This geocache helped make it rain.
