During the Australian gold rushes, starting in 1851, significant numbers of workers moved from elsewhere in Australia and overseas to where gold had been discovered. Gold had been found several times before, but the colonial government of New South Wales had suppressed the news out of the fear that it would reduce the workforce and so destabilise the economy.[1]
This Gold Rush Unit Plan is a lucky find! An amazing unit with engaging resources, activities and displays perfect for teaching about the Australian Gold Rush.
