Primary Geography for Australia book launched
One of the highlights of the conference was the launch of the new Teaching Primary Geography for Australian Schools by Simon Catling, Tessa Willy and John Butler. The book has been produced by Hawker-Brownlow and strongly endorsed by AGTA. The book is the first of its kind for Australian schools and certainly fills a huge hole in the primary geography landscape in Australia.
