Dollars & sense Financial theatre is a hit at Coledale.
Students at Coledale Public School learnt a valuable lesson about money and saving when they enjoyed a performance of Showdown at Two Bob Billabong on Tuesday, March 8. Grades three, four, five and six attended the live show, which is part of Horizon Credit Union’s award-winning Financial Literacy program. Showdown at Two Bob Billabong is a 25-minute performance starring two professional actors. It uses comedy and adventure to teach students about money, and the benefits of saving it. Rebecca Goulder, composite 4/5 class teacher at Coledale Public School, said the performance had been “very well received”. “The show was fantastic; the children were all engaged; they really enjoyed it and it taught them all about saving money, all that sort of stuff, in a very
interesting way for them. “They all watched it; none of them lost interest or went elsewhere in their heads which quite often happens … so it [the show] was a job well done.” 2515
