At Blundells Cottage students will explore the building and its surrounds, comparing the landscape today and in the past to see how Canberra has changed over time.

By actively engaging with hands-on objects, students will gain an insight into the families that lived in the Cottage over 100 years of occupation. They will compare the differences and similarities to their own lives today.

Through the program, they will develop an understanding of the historic significance of the Cottage as a reminder of the past before the city of Canberra.
