Through innovative programming Land’s Edge aims to develop and promote an understanding of Australia's coastal and alpine environments in order that an affinity for and protection of this environment is fostered.
Land’s Edge Curriculum Philosophy:
- Land’s Edge has a strong commitment to the environment and fosters this affinity with participants
- Land’s Edge recognises and promotes the inherent role of the coastal and alpine environments as context for meaningful learning and useful education experiences
- Programming aims to promote feelings of achievement and success through applied, not purely academic, results
- A high standard of interpretive learning is provided allowing students to reach their own conclusions
- All programming encompasses innovative, vibrant teaching styles, excellence and enjoyment
The Service:
All Curriculum Based Field Studies (CBFS) take the students and teachers out of the school classroom and into the outdoor classroom where the Land’s Edge team excels.
We guide the students through the day’s outcomes via fact-finding activities. Our clear, easy to follow booklets ensure that the students have a record of these first- hand observations, investigations, data collection and discussions.
All CBFS’s can include:
- Teacher Summary of each particular study
- Pre and post material
- Student fieldwork booklet
- All necessary appendices and equipment
- Logistics and program details
- Detailed location maps
- Qualified and experienced teachers and instructors
The duration of studies varies from two hours to multi-day programs.
Our Aim is to provide a service which makes the experience for schools educators as hassle-free and enjoyable as possible. Land’s Edge clients include school groups from Primary to HSC level.
