Recently Cert 1V Liberal Arts students used the audio download for an independent visit to the Immigration Museum. The audiodownload directs you to look at particular parts of the museum. The ship was one of the most popular sections for the student’s who undertook this visit. One student said, “The boat section it displayed how my relatives would have come to Australia.” “The best part I thought was the ship. Looking at the different classes people had to travel in.” “The ship, it was an eye opener. I had no idea of how it was on the boat migrating to Australia.”
