Can you remember what we call interesting or important places? Landmarks

Lots of tourists go to visit these landmarks. Which would you like to visit most? Why?

The Australian Climate The climate of Australia can vary a great deal from place to place, although in summer it’s basically hot everywhere in varying degrees. Australia is an essentially arid (dry) continent and has the least amount of rainfall out of all the continents except Antarctica. Australia is in the southern hemisphere so the seasons are opposite from the northern hemisphere; this means that Christmas in Australia is in summer when it’s hot, and summers can get quite a bit hotter than they do in the Ireland!

Northern/Southern Hemisphere

Bushfires Australia has suffered from outbursts of bushfires over the last number of years. These bush fires have occurred because of the Australian climate and the heat that Australia is famous for. Bushfires have also been purposely started by people who have no consideration for the lives of others and for the wildlife in these bush areas.
