Key learning
Students will investigate why some animal produce venom, how venom affects our bodies and first aid treatment for venomous bites and stings.
Create a profile of a venomous animal. Include information about: Name of animal Type of animal (eg reptile) Physical description Habitat How venomous is the animal? How does it deliver the venom?
How does venom affect our bodies? Different parts of the body react to different types of venom. For example, the venom from a funnel-web spider affects the nervous system. Find out how venom affects different body systems: Nervous, muscular, circulatory, respiratory and the skin.
How do you treat venomous bites and stings? Choose an animal and find out what the symptoms are if a person is bitten or stung, what first aid and medical treatment is needed. Students can demonstrate the information by creating a graphic, role play or power point presentation.

On this week's Behind the News
A new plan to keep track of your internet use but is it an
invasion of privacy?
We see how anti venom is made as some warn that these life-
saving stocks are running low.
And we're off to agriculture school to meet the future of the
industry.
Hi I'm Nathan Bazley, welcome to Behind the News. Also on the show
today, I head into the bush to learn about how we can take better care
of these areas. But first today:
School Standards
Reporter: Sarah Larsen
INTRO: We're very lucky in Australia to have access to education
and our schools are really good. But over the past decade Aussie
schools have fallen behind some other countries. The PM has come
up with a plan, which she hopes will make our school system
amongst the best in the world. So what is it? Here's Sarah.
SARAH LARSEN, REPORTER: We're a pretty competitive lot,
Australians. No matter what the event, we like to be first or as close to
first as we can get. But there's one area where Australia's falling
behind the competition and it could affect the whole country. It's
education.
While there are plenty of smart Aussie kids, when tests from around
the world are compared Australia doesn't score as high as some other
places. In reading and in science, Australia is sitting at seventh place.
In maths there are twelve places where kids perform better. While
that might not sound too bad the big worry is that Australia seems to
be slipping behind.
KID: Considering that we were high, high up and we've got lower as
the years have gone by it's kind of bad for Australia.
KID: It's sort of appalling because we're a really rich country and we
should learn to do better.
KID: Because there's a lot of things a country needs maths for and to
be able to trade with other countries and things you need skills in
maths.
KID: I guess we can't be the best at everything but countries that are
ranked high up they might not have enough jobs in their country and
they might come here and they might have first choice because
they've done a bit better.
While these guys reckon they've got it pretty good there are lots of
schools that are struggling and most people agree that something
needs to be done.
Earlier this year we told you about a report put out by this guy; David
Gonski. He said education in Australia isn't as good as it should be.
One big problem kids who go to schools in wealthy areas tend to do
better than kids at disadvantaged schools. Gonski wanted to make
this fairer by giving more money to the schools that need it the most.
Well, now the Prime Minister has responded to the report. While
she's not doing everything Gonski suggested, she's announced some
big changes to the way schools are funded. And she says there'll be
more money for kids that need extra help.
JULIA GILLARD: By 2025 I want Australian schools to be back in the
top five nations in the world that give us 13 years the time it usually
takes a child to complete their primary school education.
The PM says she'll also make it harder to get into teaching at uni so
only the best end up in the classroom.
JULIA GILLARD: I want all of you to join me in a crusade to change
the future of our children.
It won't come cheap. The PM's changes will cost about six and a half
billion dollars and she's not saying exactly where that money's going
to come from. And some say 13 years is too long to wait for a better
education system. Still, many say it’s a huge step in the right
direction.
KID: I think it's a little bit disappointing that we haven't got that
chance and the government hasn't stepped up to that sooner but it's
good to think that the future will be good as well.
KID: In the long term our country is going to go very high because of
this improvement but as long as the money is spent on proper
education.
KID: Everyone should have a good education.
Many people are hoping that by the time you guys graduate, you'll be
leaving an education system that's ahead of the race.
Presenter: Let's see what else is making the news. Here's Matt with
the Wire.
The Wire
The Prime Minister got some sad news on the weekend. Her father
John died while she was away in Russia for the APEC forum. World
leaders gave their sympathy as she flew home to be with her family.
John Gillard moved to Australia with his family when Julia was 4
years old. She says her dad was a big inspiration to her. Mr Gillard
was 83 years old.
*****
There's been debate going on about the future of Australia's biggest
irrigated farm. Cubbie Station covers 96,000 hectares in Southern
Queensland and grows a lot of cotton using a lot of water. But it got
into financial trouble three years ago.
Now a Chinese and Japanese company wants to buy the station, and
the governments said it's OK. It would be part owned and managed by
an Aussie company and Australians would work on the farm. And the
government says foreign investment is good for the country. But some
reckon it shouldn't be letting such a big chunk of land and water be
sold overseas.
Internet Privacy
Reporter: Sarah Larsen
INTRO: The stuff you look at on the internet could be monitored and
stored for up to 2 years. It's an idea that's been put forward by some
politicians but it's been criticised by some who say this kind of
surveillance would invade on people's privacy. Others say the
change would help to fight crime. So what do you think? Sarah takes
a look at the debate.
Imagine if there were a record of all the things you did online. All the
websites you visited; the people you contacted. Not just for a day or a
week but for the past two years. That's what some are saying should
happen in order to root out criminals on the web.
SARAH LARSEN, REPORTER: Most of us tend to think of the things
we do online as private; so no-one but me will know what I'm looking
at what emails I'm getting but in fact it's already possible for
authorities to find out what I've been up to.
Every time you access the net you go through an internet service
provider or ISP.
Because they connect you they know what you're doing online
whether it's looking at Facebook or downloading a movie. If
someone's suspected of a crime police can get a warrant and make the
ISP give up that information. They can also make phone companies
say who the suspect's have been calling and when.
Some big crimes have been solved that way from murders to overseas
terrorist plots. But sometimes the records get deleted and that's
something police want to change.
NICOLA ROXON, Attorney General: Many criminal investigations
require law enforcement to build a picture of criminal activity over a
period of time and without data retention that ability will be lost.
That's the Attorney General - the government's top lawyer and she's
talking about a law that would make all ISPs and phone companies
keep records of what their customers are doing for two years.
At the moment it's just a suggestion but it's already stirred up a lot of
debate.
SCOTT LUDLAM, Greens Senator: This is an extraordinary expansion
of surveillance powers. We need to be very careful before we go down
this path.
The idea of keeping two year records for every single person has some
worried. They say it'd give authorities too much power and invade
people's privacy.
ANTHONY BENDALL, Acting Victorian Privacy Commissioner:
Having a zone of privacy a zone where you have control of what
people know about you, doesn't mean you have anything to hide.
Then there's the worry that the wrong people could get their hands on
all that information.
Anonymous Video: G'day citizens of the world and Australia, we are
Anonymous.
This video was made by the online activist group Anonymous. Earlier
this year it hacked an Aussie ISP and released a bunch of personal
information about ordinary people. It said it was a warning that no
online information is safe and if it's stored, it can be hacked.
Then there's the cost. Storing large amounts of information takes a
lot of expensive hardware and ISPs say if more data has to be stored
internet prices will go up. The government says it'll listen to
everyone's opinion before drawing up new laws so, what do you
think?
KID: I think it's good so then you can find out what people are looking
up and see if they're looking up good things and bad things.
KID: I think it might invade people's privacy and it wouldn't really
stop crime because then they'll use letters or another form of
communication.
KID: Someone might just be messing around and have just like a
private joke with their friends and they're joking about it and it might
be a bomb or something.
KID: I think it's good so then they can catch the people who are doing
the wrong things.
Presenter: OK, that's our poll this week.
Online Poll
The question is:
Should the government be allowed to store the internet data of all
Australians?
To vote just head to our website.
Last week we asked should smoking be banned. 89% said yes. And
11% said no. Thanks for voting.
Anti Venom
Reporter: Natasha Thiele
INTRO: If you get bitten by a deadly spider or snake you might need
a shot of anti-venom to save your life.
Well, anti venom isn't that easy to make and for one spider bite in
particular the stocks of anti venom are running low. So what's
involved in making anti venom? Tash looks into it.
NATASHA THIELE, REPORTER: You never know when or where
they'll turn up and to some they can be pretty scary creatures. Being
bitten by a venomous spider can make you really ill and can even kill
you! Some of those deadly spiders like funnel webs produce
something called venom. Venom is made up of toxins, which are
poisonous chemicals. They can inject the stuff into other animals by
biting or stinging them. It's a way of protecting themselves in the
wild.
People can also be bitten or stung by poisonous creatures. If that
happens they might need to be treated with anti-venom. Anti-venom
was introduced in Australia around the 1980s. It works a bit like a
sponge to soak up the yucky poisonous stuff inside a person's body. So
let's take a look at how this life-saving treatment is made using
spiders!
TIM FAULKNER, AUSTRALIAN REPTILE PARK: These are all big
beautiful funnel- webs. Now each and every one of them will be
milked for their venom to make life-saving anti-venom. Now they're
kept in these small containers, which is a perfect habit for them.
Tim is a spider expert. He's going to show us the first step in making
anti-venom, which involves getting the venom from the spider
through a process called milking.
TIM: Now I'll grab two and go through the milking process. Since the
production of anti-venom, no one has ever died from a funnel web
bite. Now the process is to put a spider onto the bench, they're very
aggressive so they rear up and here we have a pipette and it's like a
miniature vacuum cleaner. Now what happens is, as that spider rears
up I can already see two droplets of venom on his fangs and we touch
that on the fang and we've now captured the venom.
The raw venom is then sent off to a lab, where it's treated. From here
the venom, whether it's from spiders or snakes, is given to animals
like horses, sheep or rabbits. Take these guys for example, they're
helping make rattlesnake anti-venom for the US. They're injected
with a small diluted amount of venom over time, which doesn't hurt
them. What happens is their immune system kicks in to fight it. It
does that by producing stuff called antibodies in the blood. Then the
anti-bodies are taken from the sheep's blood and that's what's turned
into anti-venom.
More than 100 Australians are bitten by creatures like spiders each
year, so a lot of anti venom is needed to save lives. But now there's a
bit of a shortage, particularly for the anti venom needed to treat bites
by funnel web spiders. That's led the Australian reptile park in New
South Wales to put out an unusual request. They want adults living
nearby to hand in any funnel-webs they find in their gardens, but as
they're deadly that could be really dangerous and they say under no
circumstances should kids go anywhere near them.
So now you know how much time and effort goes into making the
anti-venom that saves lives, it's important to remember to keep away
from deadly creatures and stay safe so you'll never need to use it.
Quiz 1
OK, on the subject of poisonous animals let's have a quiz.
The question is:
Which of these animals is venomous?
Porcupine
Platypus
Dung Beetle
Answer: Platypus
The male duck-billed platypus has a spur on the back of each foot
which secretes a painful venom.
Agricultural School
Reporter: Nathan Bazley
INTRO: Last week we brought you a story about the mining boom
and the kids hoping to cash in on it. Lots of adults are following
similar career paths but that's left other industries struggling to find
workers. One of them is the agricultural industry. Let's take a look.
NATHAN BAZLEY, REPORTER: It's a pretty different way of getting
to school. But then again, when your assignment moos or baaas at
you, you know you're in a very different type of classroom.
ROYCE, STUDENT: In sheep club, we get assigned a sheep each, and
every lunchtime we come down and we feed them and then we like
clean out their pens and we pretty much lead them around and train
them ready for the show.
Yep, livestock can also be an assignment! But that's just one day in the
life of an ag student.
ROYCE: After school I'm pretty keen to go, or work my way up and
kind of eventually buy a farm and run sheep and grow crops.
Royce is one young guy who really sees a future for himself in
agriculture. But the problem is, across the country, fewer kids are
following his lead.
Farming usually means wide open spaces and more fresh air than you
can poke a stick at. Most office workers would kill for that! So what's
stopping them from taking up a career on the land? Maybe there
aren't enough jobs?
PHIL, UNIVERSITY OF SOUTH AUSTRALIA: We have five jobs for
every graduate. We can't get enough.
Okay, that's not it. So why are fewer kids aiming for the ag industry?
Maybe the job has a bit of an image problem.
When you think of a job in mining, what comes to mind? Usually it's
big money and big trucks. But what comes to mind when you think of
farming? Unfortunately, many people's first thoughts are of long
hours, dirty manual labour and low pay. That, and dealing with
animal poo.
PHIL: We have to change those perceptions and stop stereotyping
farming as a low tech, low paid, you know sort of peasant agriculture
job. It isn't. Our graduates start on very good salaries, better than
veterinary science for instance.
And there is more variety in the industry than you might think.
ROYCE: In agriculture there's so many different paths and ways you
can take and I think everyone's got their own little interest in it so
agriculture, yeah it really covers a whole wide range of things.
But that's not the only image problem that has stopped kids hitting up
agriculture in the past...
PETER, ASSISTANT PRINCIPAL, URRBRAE HIGH SCHOOL: Back
in the 90’s when agriculture was very tough, a lot of families advised
their young members of the family, their children, to look at other
careers.
Want proof of that one? Well here is a picture of me growing up on
our family farm in the 90's.
We certainly had bad fashion sense, but we also had a lot of drought.
It certainly made you think twice about taking on the family business
when other jobs seemed a lot more secure!
However these days, with more rain around, the future of farming is
much brighter. So the students at this Ag school hope that'll mean
more kids will want to join them.
ROYCE: If you don't have people working in agriculture then like
who's going to feed everyone pretty much like you can't have one
person running the whole thing, you've got to have lots of people
helping and yeah, there's lots of people. The world's growing and you
need to be able to feed everyone otherwise you've got big problems.
Big problems only kids in agriculture can fix.
Quiz 2
OK, time for another quiz.
The question is:
Which is Australia's biggest agricultural export?
Beef
Wheat
Wool
Answer: Wheat
Wheat makes up nearly 18 per cent of Australia's agriculture exports.
OK, let's move onto some sports news now. Here's Matt with the
Score.
The Score
The Paralympics have drawn to a close for another 4 years with a
spectacular closing ceremony. During the games more than four
thousand competitors took part. And 251 world records were broken.
In the end, Australia finished at fifth place on the medal tally.
China finished on top with a massive 95 gold, 71 silver and 65 bronze.
*************
Earlier the Australian men's wheelchair rugby team finished their
campaign on the ultimate high downing Canada 66 - 51 to secure the
gold. Aussie captain Ryley Batt proved once again why he's called the
best player in the world scoring 37 goals in a dominant display. Chris
Bond supported Ryley well with 15 goals of his own while Canadian
star Zak Madell was the strongest resistance from opposition.
Bushcare Kids
Reporter: Nathan Bazley
INTRO: Everyone has heard of cleanup Australia day where people
comb their local area looking for rubbish of every kind. But did you
know that last weekend a different team was combing the bush
looking for something completely different. It's all about the search
for weeds. I went along to find out more.
NATHAN BAZLEY, REPORTER: Sometimes you have to sacrifice to
help the environment.
NATHAN: Ahh! I got one too! Wait let me squeeze blood out of it.
Ahh the sacrifices! Nooo!
But what are a few little cuts, compared to helping out some native
plants and animals in need.
This group of kids and I are taking part in the 'Bushcare Major Day
Out', a day that hopes to give our favourite bush areas a bit of TLC.
And ours was the Warrawong Wildlife Park.
But before we started pulling plants, we got a briefing on what to hunt
for.
TANIA, ZOOS SA: Now the weed that we will be working on is forget
me nots. Forget me nots transfer through the park via our animals.
They attach to our kangaroo, our potoroo, and all of our animals fur,
and transfer through. Okay guys let's go and get our hands dirty, and
let's go and get some forget me nots out of the sanctuary!
First things first, you have to be prepared! Then we're off!
STUDENT: Oh there is one there!
NATHAN: He's got the first one! Well done!
TANIA: Let's throw it straight in this bag so it can go in the bin!
TANIA: So guys, by clearing out these forget me nots, what we're
actually doing is making way for native species of plants to come here
and for animals to habitat the area.
NATHAN: Do animals like eating these?
TANIA: No, none of our native species of animal will actually eat
forget me nots, so they are a weed!
So as you can see, forget me nots are the big problem in this area. But
what should you be looking out for near you?
Well here is a hit list of 5 of the worst weeds across Australia!
Lantana
Gorse
Blackberries
Alligator Weed
Mesquite
Meanwhile back at the wildlife park, the forget-me-nots just keep
coming!
Although that's not all we found.
TANIA: Okay so that is kangaroo.
NATHAN: That's kangaroo poo! Fantastic, I've got it half over my
hands!
TANIA: Do you know how you can tell if it's koala poo? It smells like
eucalypts.
NATHAN: Why do you think it's important to get rid of these weeds?
STUDENT: Well they're going to keep growing and spreading
everywhere.
NATHAN: Yep and stop the native ones from growing, we have a few
of them here like this native grass and things like that. So if we can get
rid of these the native plants will have a much better chance.
But getting all the weeds out wasn't the only concern.
NATHAN: Okay so what have we got here?
STUDENT: Lot's of seeds from the forget me nots.
NATHAN: Lots of seeds. So that's how sticky they are, they stick to
your clothing and that's how they travel, isn't it!
But pretty soon, the job was done!
TANIA: Okay guys, well I think we've got the creek looking pretty
good, don't you?
NATHAN: Let's have a look, how many bags have we done?! That's
crazy, good work guys!
All in all, it's a pretty easy way to help the environment out. Except for
the cuts of course.
Closer
You might remember last week, we brought you a story about the
dangers of smoking. Well, some kids at Warooka Primary School in
South Australia sent us a brilliant anti-smoking video they'd made.
We'll end with some of that video. And we'll see you next time.
