Throwing spears, making fires, building shelters and making ropes are not your usual school classroom activities.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

But these unique yet practical life skills are being taught to Carinity Education Rockhampton students to help them be prepared for natural disasters.<\/p>\n

Students learned these vital survival skills \u2013 and developed their teamwork \u2013 at the school on March 25 as part of the Community Recovery Challenge.<\/p>\n

TV crews from 9 News<\/a>, WIN News<\/a> and 7 News<\/a> came to the school to do stories on the event.<\/p>\n

The skills activities were run by Rocky Instincts<\/a>, which teaches the traditional skills and knowledge of our ancestors including basic fire-making skills and animal trapping.<\/p>\n

Rocky Instincts Director Malachi Conway says the important skills he teaches can help people survive during and after natural disasters such as cyclones and bushfires.<\/p>\n

The unique school event for students from Years 10 to 12 was the final item of the year-long Community Recovery Challenge<\/a>, an initiative of Carinity Education Rockhampton\u00a0to help people living in the Livingstone Shire to become more resilient both before and after natural disasters.<\/p>\n

Community Recovery Challenge is activities have ranged from yoga and wellness classes, community art projects, and training a therapy dog, to mental health education, suicide prevention activities, and songwriting workshops<\/a> for people overcoming adversity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
