Description:
A trip down under to our private Walkabout gallery will give children an opportunity to learn more about the lives and culture of Aboriginal Australians and the extreme climate and wildlife of their country. Listen to traditional Aboriginal stories and understand more about the symbols used in Aboriginal art. Leave the museum with a new appreciation for art, storytelling, and Indigenous cultures.
Key learning outcome:
Students will hear traditional stories and think about the elements they are made from, in readiness to make up their own. They will encounter new vocabulary, decide on their favourite words and phrases and have opportunities to say aloud what they will write about back in school.
Main learning approaches:
Enquiry-based learning
Creative learning
