Whole School Incursion Treasure Hunt

Treasure Hunt Book Week Live Performance

Program Overview
Jess lives by the ocean. George lives in the forest. One morning they both
wake to find that something is missing – something terribly important. It
appears their world may have changed ... and not for the better! Together
they set off on a quest to find the treasure that has disappeared from
their homes. On their hunt, and despite their differences, George and Jess
share a common need. However they must first overcome their distrust,
obstacles and greatest challenge. Fortunately help is waiting from a most
unexpected source…

In celebration of the CBCA’s 80th anniversary, and its 2025 Children’s
Book Week® theme (BOOK AN ADVENTURE) the exciting educational
musical TREASURE HUNT from Perform Education is touring schools in
partnership with The Children’s Book Council of Australia.
TREASURE HUNT is an action-packed interactive adventure, written by
Craig Christie, and featuring a selection of the 2025 CBCA Short Listed
books. The musical will send students of all ages on a treasure hunt
exploring themes of sustainability and our relationship with the natural
environment, as well as celebrating how books and reading create
understanding and bring people of different backgrounds together.
