Social stories

Social stories are simple, visual and text-based guides that help students understand what to expect on an excursion. At Gibberagong Education Centre, our social-story resources make it easier for schools, teachers, students and parents to prepare for excursions in Ku-ring-gai Chase National Park.

Each social story below matches one of our excursion locations. Our social stories are downloadable in PowerPoint format.
