HEALTHY RIVERS WORKSHOP

Developed for identified secondary school students in Years 7 - 10, our Healthy Rivers Workshop is the first of a series of Classrooms on Country™ initiatives we are developing to empower students to look after country. 

 

​​​Empowering Responsible Choices

 

This immersive experience provides students with an understanding of their role in preserving and protecting freshwater aquatic ecosystems enabling them to make informed, responsible choices.​

​

Program Highlights

• Cultural Awareness: Builds understanding around the guiding principles and values associated with looking after country.

• Custodianship of Country: Explores students' cultural obligations to preserve inland rivers for future generations. 

• Hands-on Learning: A chance to participate in an educational, fun, practical fishing session that passes on knowledge of sustainable fishing practices.

 

​​How do the workshops work?

• Workshops are two-hours in duration. Cost per student is $40.00.  

• We provide all associated equipment for the practical fishing workshop. A suitable site needs to be identified locally. We can work with you in regard to this!

• Every participant receives a Catch and Release Mat proudly funded by the Aboriginal Fishing Trust Fund. 

​​

Please note that a minimum number of 12 students is required to run a workshop. Numbers are limited to 20 students per workshop.
