In 2017, Blackmans Bay Primary School took a whole of school approach to Health and Health Literacy through their engagement in HealthLit4Kids. Artefacts (creative pieces) developed by the children and teachers at Blackmans Bay Primary School were repurposed for use in the Digital Showcase for the A-Lab Grand Opening. The Showcase ran from 16-20th April 2018. Over the 4 days it was attended by Approximately 150 children & their families from Southern Tasmania. This presentation will share a video summary of the experiential learning activities available in the A-Lab space during that time; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NijlE6XUgl0
