How to...get started in Sydney: Understanding Australian history, culture and nature
Australia is more than just beaches and kangaroos — it’s a land shaped by ancient traditions, diverse cultures, and rich histories. In this relaxed and engaging peer-led workshop, we’ll uncover the stories that define this country and help you make sense of the vibrant landscape you’re stepping into.
Together, we’ll explore:
- The history of Australia, with a focus on Aboriginal heritage
- Cultural competence in a multicultural Australia
- How Aboriginal culture continues to thrive today
- Must-see sights and natural wonders in and around Sydney
