Year 5 Reconciliation in Education Program
Colonial Perspectives Incursion
Explore Australia’s colonial past through multiple lenses.
Yr 5 students will:
- Hear voices from the early colonies
- Examine stories from British authorities and Aboriginal communities
- Reflect on how history was experienced and passed down through generations
This program invites students to think critically about the past, understand diverse perspectives, and engage with the truth of our shared history.
These programs are also suitable for older age groups, including adults. There is some alignment in Year 9 History with the Year 5 program and Year 10 History with the Year 6 program. Additionally, perspectives on Australian identity in Year 8 HASS has alignment with the Year 4 and 6 programs.
The development of these programs was funded by BHP.
* Excursion sessions run at the Constitutional Centre of WA can be combined with available Constitutional Education, Parliamentary Education and Electoral Education programs. Please let us know if this is of interest.
