A great resource for teachers and students of the gold rush era in Victoria. It contains many pages of information and descriptions of gold mining techniques used on the diggings. It is written for three different levels of school children from the early Primary years to Junior Secondary. It contains stories for children, teacher background information, practical worksheets for excursions - all graded to suit the child . Five Diggings sites are examined in detail, each giving a different insight to life and work on the goldfields.

The CD contains over 450 pages in PDF format which can be easily printed and used for classroom use or as a valuable resource for student research projects on the classroom PC's.
