Students will use their curiosity to discover historic places in Old Parliament House, develop civics and citizenship understanding and find connections between our democratic systems and their lives. Participants will collaboratively interrogate and discuss past and present objects, people, places and events. Together we will reflect on change and investigate how students can participate in their communities and take action.
Students will:
- visit historic spaces in Old Parliament House
- engage in rich discussion and reflection around making positive changes
- participate in interactive and engaging learning activities
- explore their rights and responsibilities in our democracy.
