Information for teachers
Over 500 students are likely be at Luna Park on each day. To ensure that all students get access to all the rides, a roster will be prepared with schools being grouped and each group starting at a different ride, then going through the rides in the same order.
There are expected to be 12 rides operating over the four hours, so schools will spend 20 minutes at each ride before moving on to the next in a sequence. Note: Luna Park cannot guarantee that all 12 rides will be available on the day. If a ride is unavailable then the number of groups will be reduced, the 20 minutes per ride will remain and for the last 20 minutes of the day, schools will be able to choose which rides they wish to return to.
Information on a school's sequence of rides, where to assemble before entry to Luna Park, what students should bring, etc will be sent by Luna Park to schools in the week before.
Note: Worksheets will not be available at Luna Park. Teachers should download them from this website, modify if they wish, select all or some and photocopy for their students.
Documents available include:
- Information about what to bring, wet weather, etc. (file below)
- Background material on the physics of the rides, descriptions of the rides, pre-excursion activities, useful science equipment and a post excursion quiz.
- Evaluation sheets for teachers and for students which will also be sent to the school by Luna Park. (file below)
Note: This is the teacher's excursion. Teachers are responsible for their students at all times.
