Year 6 Excursion

On Wednesday our Year 6 Students had an early start for their excursion to Canberra.  They had the opportunity to participate in a variety of educational programs at Parliament House, the National Capital Authority and the National Electorate Education Centre, with the focus on Australia’s history, culture, heritage and democracy.

The Australian Government recognises the importance of all young Australians being able to visit the national capital as part of their Civics and Citizenship education. To assist families in meeting the cost of the excursion the Australian Government is contributing funding of $30 per student under the Parliament and Civics Education Rebate program towards those costs. The rebate is paid directly to the school upon completion of the excursion.

Thank you to Mrs White, Mr Adams, Mrs Preddey & Mrs King for accompanying the children.
