Voyages of Grand Discovery Education Program
Students become trainee sailors, cartographers, navigators and natural historians as they travel through the Voyages of Grand Discovery exhibition (20 July to 18 November) and see precious artefacts relating to Dutch, French and English voyages searching for the great Southland between 1616 and 1803.

Like the navigators, naturalists and cartographers traveling with Hartog, De Vlamingh, Dampier and Baudin, the young explorers record their experiences and discoveries in a Sea Journal. They find the traces these famous mariners left behind to convey messages and claims to the Southland, to future seafarers, and use their senses to experience the conditions of life aboard sailing ships in the 1600s.
