Outdoor Ed excluded from national curriculum 17-Apr-2012 At 2:33:33 PM earwig

Message

There is a final opportunity to provide feedback to those deciding on the content and intent of the Australian National Curriculum, which will influence schooling for the next 10 years. Outdoor Education may be excluded.

If Outdoor Education is excluded then the use of camps and outdoor centres for education may decline, robbing students of valuable educational, physical, spritual, emotional and social outcomes.

A group (including teachers, Outdoor Education Australia and Outdoor Council of Australia) have developed is an electronic petition asking people to acknowledge that outdoor education in schools is valuable and should be supported. Please consider signing this petition via the following link

Thanks
