Hi Everybody,

Here are the guidelines for your 'School Camp on a Budget' learning activity. Make sure you follow these guidelines properly, and remember to make your submission as fun, exciting and action packed as possible because this is judged by other students.

Guidelines:
Your school camp must be within a budget of $10 000, and include all of the following:

• Queensland location of your choice (where you believe humans are having a significant negative impact on the 'Web of Life')
• Cater for a group of 15 children and 5 adults
• Length of stay is 5 days, 4 nights (including travel days)
• All travel, accommodation and meals
• At least 4 educational experiences relating to your research
• Organised for the period of 20-24th September 2010
• Delivered electronically in the format of your choice
• Submission to be received by the Clermont office for Rio Tinto by Friday 6th August, 2010 5.00pm

The submission must begin with a brief explanation of the importance of Biodiversity in our life, followed by the details of your school camp, and budget information.

This digital submission will also be your assessment item for this term. The Assessment Criteria sheet is here.

Good luck, have fun and ENJOY!

Mrs Martyn
