Bring learning outcomes of the Australian curriculum to life with NT Learning Adventures

The Northern Territory (NT) is a place of vast horizons, inspiring landscapes and outstanding natural and cultural assets, where educational experiences abound and learning becomes an adventure.
From the majesty of Uluru-Kata Tjuta National Park to the detailed rock art in Kakadu National Park, it’s the ideal destination to deliver on many learning outcomes of the Australian curriculum.
With strong links to key learning areas and endless opportunities to exercise students’ general capabilities, the NT is uniquely positioned to address cross-curriculum priorities.
The NT authentically connects students to the living culture of Australia’s Aboriginal peoples with unrivalled opportunities for cultural immersion, authentic exchange and two-way learning.
World Heritage-listed areas and national parks offer stimulating outdoor activities that focus on sustainability and environmental sciences, plus history and culture.
In-depth learning experiences beckon in the bustling vibrancy of modern towns, where the NT's history and multicultural identity embed together.
Darwin’s geographical position also provides a unique spotlight on Australia’s close links with Asia, past and present.
Bring your students on a fascinating discovery of ancient geology, follow the pioneering journeys of early explorers and unravel the mysticism of Aboriginal culture.
They’ll be captivated with the intricacies of the natural world and enjoy a rare opportunity for digital detox.
To make it easier for educators and school excursion organisers to choose the best options for their students, the NT Government’s tourism department (Tourism NT) worked with tourism businesses, schools, national parks and other services to create NT Learning Adventures.
A collaboration of tour, transport, accommodation, attraction and experience providers, NT Learning Adventures partners offer specialised services for the education tourism sector.
Hands-on and active NT Learning Adventures bring the Australian curriculum to life, with inspiring experiences that ignite your students’ imaginations.
