The Centre for WA History at The University of Western Australia will once again run a series of Professional Learning Seminars on the Australian Curriculum: History for primary and secondary teachers on Saturday, 24 August.

Registrations are now open. Each seminar is priced at $85 and includes resource information and refreshments.

Seminars will be held in the Arts Building at UWA, and academics from UWA will present from their areas of specialisation as follows:

• ‘Community and Remembrance' (suited to Year 3 teachers), presented by Jo Hawkins
• 'The Australian Colonies in the Nineteenth Century' (Year 5), Dr Sue Hart
• 'Australia as a Nation' (year 6), Kerriann Larsen
• '1000 years of Classical Civilisations' (Year 7), Dr Michael Champion
• 'Post-war Migration Experiences' (Year 10), Winthrop Professor Jenny Gregory
• 'Historiography of Stalinist Russia' (Year 12), Professor Mark Edele

The feedback received from attendees at previous seminars has been overwhelmingly positive. While there is no assessment, teachers will receive a certificate of attendance which will count towards the year's professional development requirements.
