The Australian Gold Rush!

22/6/2020

 
During the final three weeks of Term 2, students in YYLC explored and researched the 1850's Victorian Gold Rush and Gold Rushes around Australia.
Students took on the role of being a 'prospector' hoping to "strike it rich!" by mining for gold. But beware, buying food and equipment can be expensive on the gold fields, so our students had to think critically and carefully if they hoped to become successful and wealthy as a gold miner!
