You Yangs Excursion

This week the Unit 3 Outdoor & Environmental Studies students all visited the You Yangs to do a workshop with Wadawurrung Women and Parks Victoria Community Engagement Ranger Ebonee Cook, consolidating their knowledge of the relationships that local Wadawurrung people had before and after the British arrived in Australia.

This is a key concept in the studies of the changing relationships that humans have had with the outdoor environment.

It was a great experience and gave the students first hand knowledge of how the local aboriginals lived on this land for many thousands of years.
