Year 6 had a great time in Canberra. They visited:

Click on the hyperlinks to read about each location. Year 6 will be writing some comments about their excursion. If there are any below, please take the time to read them.



Australian Government assistance for National Capital excursion
Students from our school undertook an educational tour of the national capital. While on this tour they participate in a variety of educational programmes focussed on Australia's history, culture, heritage and democracy.

The Australian Government recognises the importance of all young Australians being able to visit their National Capital as part of their civics and citizenship education. To assist you in meeting the cost of the excursion the Australian Government is contributing funding under the Parliament and Civics Education Rebate (PACER) programme toward the travel expenses incurred. This contribution will be paid directly to the school upon completion of the excursion. This contribution was calculated into the overall cost of the excursion.

We would like to thank the Australian Government for their support of this program.

  1. It was really fun going to Questacon because some of us went on a slide called freefall. It is where you drop 6.7 metres then land on a slide and slide down to the bottom.
