Beneath Hill 60 worksheet

In 1916 an Australian mining battalion consisting of miners from the North Queensland goldmines, the Hunter Valley coalmines and the Broken Hill and northern Tasmanian mines set about breaking the stalemate on the Western Front by blowing up Hill 60, a German strong-point in Belgium. The film is an excellent depiction the contrasts of life of soldiers on both the Western Front and life on a homestead in North Queensland in 1916.
