A virtual program that uses archival records to tell stories of Australian Federation. Students view the original Constitution and discover stories of Indigenous protest and activism.
ACTIVITY OUTLINE:
National Archives of Australia (National Archives) invites you and your students on a virtual excursion to our National office in Canberra.

- Discover records that tell stories of Indigenous protest and activism, and consider their enduring significance today;
