Endeavour: Eight Days in Kamay

Challenge current perceptions of the arrival of Captain James Cook and the HMB Endeavour at Kamay Botany Bay in 1770…

This learning and teaching resource provides a range of viewpoints and works to challenge current perceptions of the arrival of Captain James Cook and the HMB Endeavour at Kamay Botany Bay in 1770. It is an inclusive resource, placing value on the Aboriginal perspective to “balance the history books” by looking both from the ship and from the shore.

The curriculum resources have been designed to be accessible for use in both the New South Wales and Australian curriculum. Syllabus links are available via the Teacher Notes pages located on each learning resource.
