	Brisbane brownfield sites Join local Brisbane Geography teachers in a tour which includes the almost complete Kelvin Grove Urban Village, the about-to-be developed Hamilton Northshore and the developing Port of Brisbane.
	Why Noosa? Find out why Noosa is one of the Sunshine Coast’s most popular destinations and why the shire has been fighting strongly to preserve its identity.
	The Glasshouse legend Aboriginal legend has it that the Glasshouse Mountains will once again become an active volcanic area. Find out more about this fascinating legend as well as walk in the rainforests of the Maleny plateau.
	Geocaching on the Sunshine Coast Want to be introduced to the latest geographical craze of geocaching.  Want to use a GPS in the field then this is for you. Can’t tell you where it is going. That would spoil it. Besides even we don’t know!
	Protecting Cooloola Didn’t get enough of sand on Fraser Island; join this run through the Cooloola National Park with one of the geography teachers closely involved in the exercise which resulted in the closing of this area to sand mining and the opening of it to tourism!
