Summary ARNHEM INSIGHTTony Abbott will soon travel to Arnhem Land, as part of his election commitment to spend a week each year in an aboriginal community whilst he's Prime Minister. It's the first time a serving PM has undertaken such a trip, which is expected to shine a light on the issues facing indigenous communities there. In the lead up to his visit, we asked some kids from the area to give us an early insight into what the PM might see and learn when he arrives.TEACHING RESOURCES INCLUDED Learning areas:Health and Physical Education/ Personal, Social and Community Health/Contributing to healthy and active communities Research own heritage and cultural identities, and explore strategies to respect and value diversity Years 3 & 4Civics and Citizenship/Knowledge and Understanding/Citizenship, diversity and identity How groups, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Peoples, express their particular identities, how this influences their perceptions of others, and others' perception of them Year 7ALCOHOL DAMAGEA new study has found teenage kids who are given alcohol by their parents are more likely to become heavy drinkers later in life. The findings contradict a common belief, that kids should be given alcohol early to teach them how to drink responsibly. But while the opposite has now been proven to be true, there are also many other reasons kids' shouldn't be given alcohol. We take a look inside the body, to find out what really happens when kids and alcohol mix.TEACHING RESOURCES INCLUDED Learning areas:Health and Physical Education/Personal, Social and Community Health/Being healthy, safe and active Plan and practise strategies to promote health, safety and wellbeing Years 5 & 6 Investigate and select strategies to promote health, safety and wellbeing Years 7 & 8Health and Physical Education/Personal, Social and Community Health/Communicating and interacting for health and wellbeingRecognise how media and important people in the community influence personal attitudes, beliefs, decisions and behaviours Years 5 & 6PALAU FISHINGOreall and his dad are from the tiny island nation of Palau and they love to go fishing! But lately, Oreall has noticed that there are fewer fish ending up on his line. Commercial trawlers have had a big impact on the area's fish stocks. So Oreall's dad is cracking down on them, to make sure he and his son can continue fishing around Palau for many years to come.DECLAN'S STORYDeclan is a normal kid. But he sees the world differently to many other kids. That's because Declan has Aspergers. And he'd like you to know that it's not bad, it just makes him a bit different to you. His story will show you how.WOOD SPORTWhen the royal show rolls into town, some interesting activities always come with it. But there are few as exciting as competitive wood chopping. It's a frantic sport that takes years of practice and a lot of strength to master. We meet one kid who's already good enough to compete against the men.**Teacher resources available at www.abc.net.au/btn/teachers.htm**
