When students have an opportunity to learn outdoors they start to ‘live their learning’. This experiential method of teaching has been part of traditional Aboriginal culture for millennia. Passing on skills and ancestral knowledge from one generation to the next through practising lore and maintaining customs has preserved the Aboriginal culture, making it the oldest living culture in the world today. Aboriginal cultural tours and activities provide this same immersive learning experience, giving students the opportunity to explore authentic, project based learning in an outdoor classroom context. With hands on examples that include hunting and gathering, making tools and implements using only natural resources and fostering a deeper understanding of the unique cultural identity of the first Australians. Many of the tours offer authentic ‘on country’ experiences, interacting with cultural custodians and elders, who share their knowledge of the land and offer an insight into Aboriginal culture through Dreaming stories, song, dance and a range of activities that encourage group participation and cooperation. nature based activities discover ancient places tools and artefacts Aboriginal Kununurra 7 16 Cape Leveque 10 Cultural 1 3 6 Derby 8 9 11 15 4 Broome Fitzroy 12 14 13 Tours and Crossing 5 2 Experiences Port Hedland 17 Karratha Onslow Exmouth WESTERN AUSTRALIA 18 Shark Bay Laverton Geraldton 19 20 Kalgoorlie 22 23 24 25 Perth 26 Fremantle 28 30 Mandurah 21 31 33 Bunbury Esperance 27 29 Yallingup Albany 32 Denmark A range of cultural tours,activities, on country camping and accommodation 1.
