Students comments;It was funny. I learnt about the Eureka Stockade. I understand the Eureka Stockage better.
Review the booking process and Iconic Performances.The administration of Iconic and the actors need to communicate the exact address of their performance. This is the second year in a row that the actors went to the wrong venue.

Great, exciting, funny, brilliant
The Show and EventThe students loved Bluey / Sargeant. He had a strong, loud voice, was funny and always in character. Children could really relate to him. If there is anything I would ask for the show to improve on it is JUST MORE OF IT.

The hands on, student particpation element is really important. You did this well. The male performer was brilliant. The kids asked lots of questions at the end of the show and he was happy to share his knowledge. The Police Academy (soldier recruitment) scene was particluarly hilarious! The show was fabulous. The actors were fantastic! Thanks for coming all the way to Canberra!

The actor who played Bluey was particularly funny and engaging. The students responded really well to his enthusiasm and willingness to act silly for his character. The actors stayed in character from the first greetings with the students. They presented curriculum information in an engaging way with well thought out props. The information pack for teachers was sent a bit late to be useful. It meant that choosing students for roles and sharing the songs with the students before the show was very rushed.

I liked how real it was and how the students got to experience the equipment that was used on the goldfields and also all the different aspects of the Australian Goldrush like, the women, the chinese, why gold was valuable, the bushrangers, the Eureka Stockade.
The Show and EventThe year 5's thought it was hilarious when their peers were acting, especially when they were trying to be soldiers and march in time. The year 5's also found it funny when their peers acted out being bushrangers.

As a school we would like to have them back more often for other shows. There were great ideas for teaching in general. Great acting - especially the way they interacted with comments from the students. What a great event to have put on in the school. There were many little snippets of infomration they really were not aware - the whole thing came to life.
The Show and EventThe only negative comment was that at times it was a little repetetive - but they all agreed that was not a point that was prominent in the whole day.
