HELP FOR STUDENTS AND TEACHERS


We have a wide range of brochures on weather subjects; contact us for yours. We also have a lot of educational material on the web site. If you need more detailed information, we can do that too, but there is a charge for the time we spend. So, how can you find the answers for yourself?

Visit a library. Libraries are there to help you find answers to your questions and they are free!

Check an encyclopedia. This is a good way to start your project. Your local Council library will have at least one encyclopedia for younger readers and another for the general public. You may find on-line encyclopaedias useful; see Encyclopaedia Britannica's Limited Search Facility or Encarta On-line or the Letsfindout Kids’ Encyclopedia.

See our lists of books about weather and climate, climate change and natural disasters. If you know of a useful book or web link that's not in our list, tell us about it! In the Bureau’s book, WONDERS OF THE WEATHER you will find answers to many of your questions.

Visit other parts of our home page and look at other weather and climate web sites.

Check the CSIRO Enquiries home page. They provide help for teachers and students, and links to other useful sites.

JUST FOR TEACHERS. Would your class benefit from a visit to the Bureau? Do they need data for an assignment? See our links to schools programs.
