Bring Australian history to life in your primary classroom with history activities and reading passages, teaching presentations on important points in Commonwealth history and more.

Inside you'll find historical timelines from the era of the First Fleet through modern times, resources for teaching students of all backgrounds about Aboriginal history and the stewards of the land, and activities designed to help children explore the aspects of society that have changed over time and shaped the Australia we live in today.
