Your Expedition ( _________ & ________ )
You are going on a 3 month Expedition from South to North through the harsh arid areas of Australia. 

Who will be your partner? 

What provisions will you need to survive the journey? 

How much will it cost?



Using your iPads visit Australian online shops to find the things you need to take on your expedition.

To help get you started:

  • brainstorm things you think you may need to take
  • look for camping stores to find equipment you need to take with you.
  • use online shops like Coles and Woolworths to find the food and drink you will need to take.
Use A4 paper to record your provisions and the cost. Check and make sure you have enough to last 3 months. 

Rewrite your list neatly and make sure to add appropriate sub headings to organise your work.

What is the total cost of your expedition?

Extension:
What if you budget was cut and you had to leave some things behind. List the things you could do with out.
