The Formation Of Our National Identity
This new drama workshop takes children on a journey of key events between the landing of the First Fleet to the formation of Federation (1787-1901).

It touches on the hardship of the goldfields and the Eureka Stockade, the tenacity of early explorers and bushrangers and will highlight the struggles in forming a national identity.

A wide variety of dramatic techniques are used such as slow motion, mime, dialogue and improvisation. This is a fast paced drama using lots of props and costumes to give children a good overview of this period.

It is ideal for students who have some knowledge of this period.

Suitable for year 3 to 6 children.
