Celebrating Democracy Week - Best practice papers
Celebrating Democracy Week provided opportunities for schools in NSW to showcase to colleagues, parents and school communities what they are doing in civics and citizenship education.
Celebrating Democracy Week in NSW for 2003 and 2004 has been marked with two very different conferences at NSW Parliament House.
This page provides a reproduction of many of the key note addresses and school presentations from these two conferences. It is done with the intention of sharing ideas and best practice for civics and citizenship education in schools.
