year 6 visit the nation’s capital

Term 3, 2023

Perfect Canberra weather accompanied Year 6 on their excursion to our Nation’s capital last term. It was a packed few days with visits to a variety of sites which complemented their History and Geography lessons on democracy, citizenship, federation, governance and immigration. Students explored Parliament House, the National Museum of Australia (where they especially enjoyed the soundscape outdoor map of Australia), the Australian War Memorial (a visit which was most remembered for the emergency evacuation of the building) and hands on time at Questacon in the evening. For the sporty students learning out leading edge technology at the Australian Institute of Sport was a highlight.
