Cultural Tours

Humanities

Our Humanities Tours provides students with the opportunity to discover the history of Sydney, enjoy the geographic wonders of the Kosciusko National Park in NSW and explore civics and citizenship of our national capital. Highlights of the Tour include examining the archaelogical remnants of colonial Sydney with a guided tour through ‘The Rocks’. The varied terrain of the Snowy mountains will certainly be an eye-opener to all students who are used to a flatter landscape of Western Australia. In Canberra, students are given the opportunity to participate in a variety of educational programs with a focus on Australia’s history, culture, heritage and democracy. Highlights is the visit to Parliament House, the High Court and the Australian War Memorial.
