Virtual Australian Tour

July 2008

Includes participation in the 2008 Australian Association for Environmental Education (AAEE) conference:

"ENVIRONMENTAL EDUCATION UP THE TRACK:
HOT TOPICS FOR OUR COMMUNITY"
9-12 July 2008 ~ Darwin, Northern Territory

Apply by: June 15th


This is a tour with an environmental conscience!!  In recognition that Australia is a long way away, and that Darwin is even harder to get to once there, the International Commission is offering you an opportunity to visit Australia AND participate in the AAEE conference - with a twist!  An environmentally friendly virtual Aussie experience!! 

We will provide you with all the ideas and some of the essential items to host your own Aussie BarbeeQ experience.  Invite your neighbours and friends to come over to your place for this fun filled arvo (afternoon) of good old Aussie fun.  You will receive ideas and recipes and the odd artifact that will make this event a pleasure to host.  Items may include: Vegemite for the Hors d'ouvres.  Pavlova mix (so simple that you cant go wrong) for the yummiest dessert ever!!   Milo and Cherryripe chocolates for after dinner treats.  Aussie smells (eucalyptus) and music (Xavier Rudd) to set the ambiance.  The recently released movie Ten Canoes to provide some cultural awareness.  An Aussie words (slang) dictionary - so you can understand each other... Plus much more!!
