The Battler's Saint: Mary MacKillop in The Rocks

Location: The Rocks
For Years: 7-9
Key Learning Area: Religion and History
Maximum: 75 students per session
Program Duration: 120 minutes

This program looks at the achievements of this remarkable woman through the eyes of the poor she helped. Her experiences in The Rocks are brought to life on the archaeological dig site near the location of the first refuge she established for the homeless. 

Mary MacKillop's story is integral to the development of Australian society in the late 19th century, particularly in the areas of social justice and education.

To assist you in getting the most out of the program and to maximise the experience for your students, Sydney Learning Adventures has created comprehensive Teacher Resource Packs for each program.
