Psychology School Excursion

Topic Learning
Date May 8, 2026

The Year 12 ATAR Psychology class recently attended Psychology Day at Perth Zoo, to explore how theories of learning such as classical conditioning, operant conditioning, observational learning and systematic desensitisation are applied to the care and management of animals at the Zoo.

They took part in formal presentations by various Zoo keepers, and even experienced a live encounter with a snake!
