Now may I ask in Secondary school did you have more then one teachers and also more then one room or did you have to stay in one classroom and different teachers would come to that classroom? I'm asking since I hear totally different answers when it comes to secondary school.
All of the above. :p
It varied, depending on the subject, and the availability of the room. Some subjects require a specific room, others can be done anywhere.
The year 12 class rarely left their room, while the year 8 class traipsed about all over the school. Cooking can only be done in the home ec room, wood work can only be done in the tech studies room, Maths and English can be taught anywhere. Some of the rooms were shared with the primary half of the school, like the art room, the computer lab, the library.

I keep forgetting your from Australia well kudos to you for having field trip in Secondary school. I remember going to the zoo in 1-5 grade or ages 6-10 and the aquarium and again museums also learning about the fire departments and police.
The nearest zoo was about a 6 hour drive away, more like 6 1/2-7, if you allow for toilet and food stops. Not something you want to do with a bunch of 5 year olds.
Now in highschool I remember going to field trips probably 4 times since it interfered with all the other classes and subjects since unlike elementary we had only one class and one teacher.Given the distances we had to travel for most field trips, they were often done in a single week. One day spent travelling, 3-4 days spend doing field trip stuff, then another day spent travelling home.
Our states are freaking HUGE!
One state here covers about 1/3 of the country. I live in one of the states that takes up about 1/6 of the country.
I currently live about 13 hours drive(without breaks) from the nearest capital of another state.
And these distances also impact how some subjects are taught. I had to take some classes via OAC distance education, kinda like school of the air.
