Ninu - a companion for younger students

NINU THE BILBY
The crew on board westernaustralia.com have adopted a mascot, Ninu the Bilby, for their round-the-world journey. Ninu is intended to be a way to help engage younger students in learning tasks related to the race.

To ensure tasks remain open-ended and suitable for older students, none have been designed around Ninu specifically. Rather, a number of tasks suitable for early childhood include a photo or video resource featuring Ninu.
